Learning MallocDebug/Leaks

I have tried hard to learn MallocDebug and Leaks, but could use some advice.

Here are 4 examples of why I'm confused after reading the attending docs of for these tools: 1. Leaks reports 3 leaks for 224 total leaked bytes for a completely new Cocoa app and yet reports no leaks for Apple's Sketch example app 2. MallocDebug reports a leak in my app, but doesn't list any of my methods. I don't know where to start looking for the leak 3. MallocDebug's hex dump lists what to me are random characters 4. MallocDebug and Leaks reports different information for the same app even when the -exclude option is used with Leaks

Have I missed some leak examples or a book which would help me to learn? Thank you. _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list. They will be ignored.
