If complied --with-log=1 (the default), then

PetscLogDouble allocated = ((PetscObject)mat)->mem;

will give you the total amount of memory that was logged as being allocated
for the matrix. This is not necessarily everything, and I don't know if
reallocation (if you didn't preallocate correctly) is logged consistently.
