All this would do is make your app take longer to terminate.
There's
no point to freeing memory when the app is quitting.
IMHO, there is some idea in trying to make sure that all objects are
dealloced as they should when the application is terminating. Objects
may do
other stuff than simply freeing memory when they are dealloced, for
example
close down socket connections or remove temporary files. If they are
forcibly destroyed, then this junk will be left behind.
Cleaning up temporary files and the like should be done in the app
delegate's -applicationWillTerminate: method.
