This would be a good method to analyze the total amount of RAM used by an
application, but it has a few drawbacks:
 * it can only measure the RAM footprint of the whole application
 * the device must be restarted several times to get good figures
 * special initialization code is required
 * special analysis code is required

I intend to measure only the memory footprint of some function and in this
special case there is no heap memory used by the functions.
