disabling GuardMalloc?

How do I stop this thing? ;-)

I ran my app under MallocDebug ("Run: Start with Performance Tool -> MallocDebug" -- I presume this is what started the story, anyway). Now, I'm done with that. But I still see stuff like this every time I launch the app:

GuardMalloc: Allocations will be placed on 16 byte boundaries.
GuardMalloc:  - Some buffer overruns may not be noticed.
GuardMalloc:  - Applications using vector instructions (e.g., SSE or Altivec) should work.
GuardMalloc: GuardMalloc version 18

and my app is still ponderously slow, and I can't figure out how to get back to the old way of life.

Here are some things I've checked, and would have undone only they're already undid:

1. there is no check next to "Start with performance tool -> MallocDebug" in the Xcode run menu
2. "env | grep -i malloc" in a Terminal window shows nothing
3. quit/restart Xcode is no help
4. "Clean All" (including precompiles) + Build-and-Debug is no help
5. no Build settings for project, target say "-lgmalloc"
6. executable "Arguments" is empty
7. searching documentation and this list (found many fine helps about starting it, using it, no mention of stopping it)
8. searching Activity Monitor for something named "MallocDebug", no such entity
9. restart Mac
