They mean the same in SLANG "sussed and measured" = the same .The full slang or idiom, I think would be a better description is "she has my full measure" = someone knows you well, or understands your real desires etc, or maybe suspects your ulterior motives. EDIT: i found this https://www.macmillandictionary.com/dictionary/british/get-the-measure-of-someone-take-someone-s-measure

If she got me sussed, that means she understood my motives and methods. Usually this implies competition or conflict of some kind, i.e. the knowledge gave her some advantage: I couldn't fool or surprise her. She got me measured: I only know the literal meaning of this, which is that she asked somebody to measure my size. My mother got me measured every year when I went for my new school suit. There may be a slang meaning that I don't know, but I think it will be rare. The slightly different wording "she got the measure of me" means the same as "she got me sussed".
