Memory usage question...

[eluser]theQco[/eluser]
Hey everyone,

I have a fairly simple page that I am loading about 40 objects from a database - name and id.

My profiler output is as follows:

Memory Usage: 3,303,728 bytes ( 3,344,704 peak bytes )

Benchmarks:
Loading Time Base Classes 0.0117
Controller Execution Time 0.0518
Total Execution Time 0.0636

Get Data: No GET data exists

Post Data: No POST data exists

Database: 1 query - 0.0011


The time is fine. I am just unsure whether 3MB is normal memory usage. I realized you don't have my query or code but the question I have is: does it seem normal that one query selecting 2 columns (name (varchar 100) and id (int 11) and returning about 40 rows would take up 3MB of data. I'm not sure what this 3MB is consisted of. Is it the whole page, ie: images, css, plus the memory needed to execute?

Any thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks!
