We have a very large application that uses a couple of dozen libraries from various sources. Our application is leaking virtual memory. Periodically, there is a 1 Mb bump in virtual memory, which is never reclaimed. Over time, several days, the accumulative affects of this leak are that we run out of virtual memory. We've tried all the standard tools such as leaks, and MallocDebug, but our application is too large for these. They either crash or slow our application down to the point that it is useless. I'm wondering if there is someway for me to get my hooks into the system allocator. If so, everytime I see a 1 Mb bump in virtual memory I could log the stack to a file. The stack may lead me to the leak. This email sent to site_archiver@lists.apple.com
