Is there currently a way to do this in the most current version of Fmod? Sometimes I need to see specifics of how much data is being cached into memory with the size of a specific bank file, rather than the amount of memory being used at run-time, for instance.

The only way I can think of to do what you want, would be to use FMOD::Memory\_GetStats before and after loading a bank to find out the current memory allocations.
