# Description
This PR adds a new command called `debug info`. I'm not sure if the name
is right but we can rename it if needed. The purpose of this command is
to show a user how much memory nushell is using. This is what the output
looks like.
I feel like the further we go with nushell, the more we'll need to
easily monitor the memory usage. With this command, we should easily be
able to do that with scripts or just running the command.
```nushell
❯ debug info | table -e

> [!NOTE]
The `process.environment` is not the nushell `$env` but the environment
that the process was created with at launch time.

# Tests + Formatting
<!--
Don't forget to add tests that cover your changes.
Make sure you've run and fixed any issues with these commands:
- `cargo fmt --all -- --check` to check standard code formatting (`cargo
fmt --all` applies these changes)
- `cargo clippy --workspace -- -D warnings -D clippy::unwrap_used` to
check that you're using the standard code style
- `cargo test --workspace` to check that all tests pass (on Windows make
sure to [enable developer
mode](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/apps/get-started/developer-mode-features-and-debugging))
- `cargo run -- -c "use std testing; testing run-tests --path
crates/nu-std"` to run the tests for the standard library
> **Note**
> from `nushell` you can also use the `toolkit` as follows
> ```bash
> use toolkit.nu # or use an `env_change` hook to activate it
automatically
> toolkit check pr
