Django Eraserhead monitors:

* querysets/models fields usage (used and unused fields) with considering deferred fields
* count of instances created for each queryset
* corresponding model of each queryset
* traceback for each queryset to easily find corresponding code
* calculate memory consumption of unused fields

Based on fields usage Django Eraserhead suggests optimizations for each queryset.

TODO
-----

* decorator and/or context processor for partial stats collecting
* detect deferred fields loading
* auto deferring fields based on usage
* display deferred fields

Running Tests
-------------
