ABSTRACT:
Embodiments of the invention relate to identifying sources of memory leaks. In an embodiment, an agent collects information related to object allocations and de-allocations in accordance with a sampling period, and, based on the relationship between object allocations and de-allocations, the agent analyzes the data and reports the results. Other embodiments are also disclosed.
