you can't. PHP (the ZE actually) handles all memory related tasks behind
the screens, this means you shouldn't have to worry about it. But just
"don't worry" doesn't mean it can not be seen.
AFAIK there are functions which give you the total memory used by the
script, but I don't think there are any showing the memory used by a
structure/variable. (since there's no need for them)
