Not necessarily, could be cached data that is deliberately not released. (A
long time ago I had to deal with an app where deleting all allocated memory
could take up to 10-15 seconds at app quit!)

If Apple were to address this problem, I'd much rather see them go a step
further an API with a couple of calls: StartTrackingLeaksNow and
PrintLeaksNow, or some such.
