Memory Consumption by an app - WIndows phone 8.1 Emulator

I'm currently working in Web Scraping based windows phone 8.1 version. And I want this app to consume very low memory space. This is why I need to check how much memory it's taking when running. I can't find the option to see this memory log. Anyone has any idea how this can be done?

The emulator in many cases may behave not as a real device. I'd recommend using Release version and test on a real device. If you have Windows Phone 10 device, you may consider enabling the Device portal and monitoring your app performance and memory usage there: http://mspoweruser.com/new-device-portal-in-windows-10-mobile-makes-it-super-easy-to-sideload-apps-pictures/ It even supports REST API in case you want to make some test automation.

In Visual Studio 2013 there is a powerful tool for monitoring CPU, Memory usage and UI responsiveness go to Debug--->Performance and diagnostics. Select memory usage ans start diagnostics. See Below images.
