not really

many of test cases dont care at all about resources.  might be useful to have 
an embedded doc format so tests that do care about resources can declare them 
and then a script can run periodically to collect all of them in a summary 
format.

i'm pretty sure that in the vast majority of cases, the memory size is the 
only thing that a test may play with.
