And yet I still get 36 with this:
bigKronk = Kronk('supercalifracilisticexpalidocious, even though the sound
of it is really quite atrocious')
sys.getsizeof(bigKronk)
36
So I guess the object is only pointing to its contents. Which I assume
means an object is just a bunch of names bound to pointers.
