Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

Get size of a JavaScript object in Bytes

JavaScript does not provide sizeof (like in C), and programmer does not need to care about memory allocation/deallocation.

However, according to ECMAScript Language Specification, each String value is represented by 16-bit unsigned integer, Number uses the double-precision 64-bit format IEEE 754 values including the special "Not-a-Number" (NaN) values, positive infinity, and negative infinity.

Having this knowledge, the module calculates how much memory object will allocate.

Limitations

Please note, that V8 which compiles the JavaScript into native machine code, is not taken into account, as the compiled code is additionally heavily optimized.

Installation

npm install object-sizeof

Examples

ES5

  var sizeof = require('object-sizeof')
  
  // 2B per character, 6 chars total => 12B
  console.log(sizeof({abc: 'def'}))
  
  // 8B for Number => 8B
  console.log(sizeof(12345))
  
  var param = { 
    'a': 1, 
    'b': 2, 
    'c': {
      'd': 4
    }
  }
  // 4 one two-bytes char strings and 3 eighth-bytes numbers => 32B
  console.log(sizeof(param))

ES6

  import sizeof from 'object-sizeof'
  
  // 2B per character, 6 chars total => 12B
  console.log(sizeof({abc: 'def'}))
  
  // 8B for Number => 8B
  console.log(sizeof(12345))
  
  const param = { 
    'a': 1, 
    'b': 2, 
    'c': {
      'd': 4
    }
  }
  // 4 one two-bytes char strings and 3 eighth-bytes numbers => 32B
  console.log(sizeof(param))
