## Class RamUsageEstimator

- java.lang.Object
- - org.apache.lucene.util.RamUsageEstimator

    public final class RamUsageEstimator
    extends Object

Estimates the size (memory representation) of Java objects.

This class uses assumptions that were discovered for the Hotspot virtual machine. If you use a non-OpenJDK/Oracle-based JVM, the measurements may be slightly wrong.

See Also:
  `shallowSizeOf(Object)`, `shallowSizeOfInstance(Class)`
NOTE: This API is for internal purposes only and might change in incompatible ways in the next release.
