    PHP extension to get insight about memory usage

    I learned a lot in the process, but also noticed the nice memory graphs in the video and figured it would be hard to troubleshoot anything if I didn't have them. When using php extensions such as Benoît's or Arnaud Le Blanc's to take a snapshot of the memory, it's great to think about the most appropriate moment to take that snapshot in order to capture the memory leak you might be hunting. Sure, you can use Monolog's MemoryUsageProcessor to that end, but I thought it would be more useful to get something a bit more ✨visual✨.
