Description Paul Lewis 2013-01-23 05:10:28 PST
Some kind of leak detection and tools to identify more clearly their origin.
Comment 1 Paul Lewis 2013-01-24 03:36:46 PST
More context:

We currently have heap profiling tools which implicitly allow us to see between to snapshots what may have been created but not released. A more formal tool which allows us to see specifically which developer-created objects have been retained, perhaps as an additional view to the heap profiler, would be ideal. That way a developer can do some actions and easily see where they may have leaks.
