This is the first place I've checked. I see no useful info there about
the actual size of the objects (bytes occupied in memeory).

The closest thing to what I need is get_objects( ). Then I have to go
over the list
and do something with the objects. Wouldn't that be too slow?

Thanks anyway,
Adrian.
