Really helps in tracking down memory hogs, forgetting to nuke swstats for example.
You can configure it to show up to 20, and it's also possible to enable CPU Profiling of addon usage as well (CPU Profiling is probably more key to figuring out performance bottleneck, than memory profiling is). The CPU Profiling is disabled by default because having it on will cause a performance hit, I recommend trying that out on some content that's trivial for you.

For example, my two largest memory consuming addons still consume relatively little CPU time, while KTM, which has a low memory footprint, takes up most of my CPU time, oddly enough even when I'm flying around doing nothing.

(Edit: Actually Ace2 is my largest memory consumer and cpu time consumer, but as I'm running stand-alone ace libraries and run ~60 Ace mods that's no wonder)
