Some advice tracking down memory leaks

SDK Get Help

  1. The device is rebooted after a you choose home. So memory leak is contained to the currently running game.

  2. Not sure as I don't use C. But you can use the device view in Simulator to see live memory usage reporting from device.

  3. The device cannot be switched off. Also, see 1.

Interestingly, this old thread of mine was just bumped: Tracking memory usage throughout your game

ps: I had a memory leak using drawTextAligned in Lua, which was not triggering the garbage collector in scenes with little going on.
