Why Debug? Taking size of (external representation of) object in bytes useful not only for debugging.
BTW, measuring current memory usage is also useful not only for debugging.
Something like Pike.sizeof() or Pike.memory_usage() would be more appropriate - who knows, may be, one day, existence of Debug module will depend on compile-time switch :)
