Reference counting events not always tracked in Instruments

I'm trying to track down potential heap bloat using the Allocations instrument. I consistently see a couple objects still around after I close their window (and a breakpoint on their -dealloc isn't hit). I'd love to see who is holding a reference, but the history for the specific object is always blank. I can see the stack for its creation, but that's it.

"Record reference counts" is configured (since I'm using Run with Performance Tool > Leaks), and I do see refcount history for other objects.

Is there a trick for making it really record refcounts?

The objects aren't listed by the Leaks instrument, BTW.

Using Instruments Version 2.7 (3017).
