Although I agree with Carl that this is an administrative rather than a technical issue, I think that the module I have in mind would still be useful for site auditing purposes: for example, when taking over a site that has been put together by another Drupal shop.<div>

I would add one little thing to that query:<br>
<br>
SELECT name FROM system WHERE type='module' AND status='1' AND
filename NOT LIKE 'module/%';<br>
<br>
That way you don't get Drupal's core modules in the list.<br><font color="#888888">

I have a list of 60+ modules that I download, via drush,
to each new Drupal site that I build. I then enable
whatever modules are needed for the specific site I'm
working on as I carry out the build.</blockquote>

This means that once the site is launched, there may be
modules that are not being called by Drupal core but
that are still enabled and/or installed.</blockquote>

Is there an automated way - a specific module, for
example - that will tell me which of the modules that
are enabled on a site are being called by Drupal core?</blockquote>

Secondly, is there any performance implication for

<div>The answer to the second question seems to be "no".
And It doesn't seem that such a module does exist -
would it be technically possible to write this module
for D6? </div>
