Thanks for that incredibly helpful suggestion.

I know how to run instruments. Show me the documentation that tells me how to actually do something with Allocations. If you look at my previous email on the subject, you can see that I ran Allocations way back when it was suggested, and found NO allocations of NSFileHandle.

I did a fair bit of work on this already. I don't have time do all of Apple's job for them. I've provided them with the code necessary to reproduce the problem, they're the ones that will have to fix it.

Then they will waste my time and theirs while I give them a similar explanation.
