Debugging ObjectStoreFullError and Memory Leak
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
You can view information for Ray objects in the memory tab. It is useful to debug memory leaks, especially `ObjectStoreFullError`.
Note that this is the same information as displayed in the `ray memory command <https://docs.ray.io/en/latest/memory-management.html#debugging-using-ray-memory>`_. For details about the information contained in the table, please see the `ray memory` documentation.

**Type**: Type of a process. It is either a driver or worker.
**Object ID**: Object ID of a Ray object.
**Object Size** Object Size of a Ray object in bytes.
