Anyone know of any good libraries or tools for checking for memory leaks in an Obj-C program? ObjectAlloc is more of an object "backtrace" than something that looks for memory leaks. OmniObjectMeter is far too expensive for a small time hacker.

MallocDebug can check for memory leaks. There is also the command-line tool leaks.
