MacApp dudes,

Let's not forget ZoneRanger! I find it more useful than Swatch. It has a few
more features and doesn't need to be loaded as an INIT. Not only can you watch
memory get eaten up "live" but you can click on the memory and see what's in
there! Very useful!

The Swatch application is also handy for finding about leaky apps, just let
it
run in a window, and check out if the free heap numbers are mysteriously
ticking down even if you are not doing anything.  Even better, if you could
figure out the size of the chunks that decrease, it might even give an
indication what is really leaking (sometimes).
