I use it often when I investigate memory usage.
It provides some useful information even in release Python build. For example:

* Which size class is most allocated?
* How many block are allocated?
* Which size class have most free blocks? (e.g. Inner fragmentation)
* Combined with tracing application to stderr, which part of the application increase memory usage?
