On a more positive note, thanks to yours and others help, I’ve sorted my Memory issues.

I got rid of the leaks (most if not all!), after that running a download test, showed that memory peaked at 150+ MB.

After fishing about and changing every method in the call chain to conform to new/alloc naming, I got it to peak at 120ish MB.

After digging and moving @autoreleasepool’s down the call chain until I reach the bottom later and there was the 120 MB culprit!

	myDataTask = [self.pNetworkCommandURLSession dataTaskWithURL:myURL completionHandler:
			^(NSData* theResponseData,NSURLResponse* theURLResponse,NSError* theErrorInfo)
			{
			LTWiOS7NetworkInfo*				myBlockiOS7NetworkInfo;

			myBlockiOS7NetworkInfo = [[LTWiOS7NetworkInfo alloc] initWithResponseData:theResponseData andHTTPURLResponse:(NSHTTPURLResponse*) theURLResponse andErrorInfo:theErrorInfo];
			[self setNetworkResponse:myBlockiOS7NetworkInfo withRequestID:theRequestParameters.pRequestID];

			}
			];

Returns autoreleased theResponseData and/or theURLResponse and/or theErrorInfo. These values are copied into properties with +1 retain count and passed up the chain. This was all working fine and those copies were getting released, it was the 3 autorelease objects from passed back in dataTaskWithURL: that were stuck in the autorelease pool.

I just out a @autoreleasepool {} around the whole method and now when I run the same tests, the memory peaks at…………….. Wait for it……………. 12 MB!

That’s 110 MB difference! Amazing! I always knew autorelease was bad news!

Thanks again for your help!

Cheers
Dave
