Total Size of NSMutableArray object

I've got an NSMutableArray that holds a bunch of objects, what I'm trying to figure out is how much memory is the array using. After looking at a couple of places I know about the size of call, and when I make it I get 32 bits (which is the size of the NSMutableArray object it self).

Example code:

NSMutableArray *temp = [[NSMutableArray alloc]init];
[temp addObject:objectxyz];
[temp addObject:objectabc];
[temp addObject:object123];

now I want to know the size :)

If the NSArray, and all the objects it contains, and all their sub-objects (recursively etc.) respond to NSCoder, you might be able to serialize the array into a temporary NSData memory chunk, and then get the memory size of that one flat temporary object.
