How to find the size of localStorage

How to find the size of localStorage

// Execute this snippet in Chrome console

var _lsTotal=0,_xLen,_x;for(_x in localStorage){_xLen= ((localStorage[_x].length + _x.length)* 2);_lsTotal+=_xLen; console.log(_x.substr(0,50)+" = "+ (_xLen/1024).toFixed(2)+" KB")};console.log("Total = " + (_lsTotal / 1024).toFixed(2) + " KB");

// or add this text in the field 'location' of a bookmark for convenient usage

javascript: var x, xLen, log=[],total=0;for (x in localStorage){xLen =  ((localStorage[x].length * 2 + x.length * 2)/1024); log.push(x.substr(0,30) + " = " +  xLen.toFixed(2) + " KB"); total+= xLen}; if (total > 1024){log.unshift("Total = " + (total/1024).toFixed(2)+ " MB");}else{log.unshift("Total = " + total.toFixed(2)+ " KB");}; alert(log.join("\n"));
