    we prevent them? Q&A Resources

  3. Memory that... has been consumed (allocated), is no longer needed,

    but cannot be returned to the OS for reuse or accessed by the program that allocated it. Is there a problem with that? Waste of resources Slowdown (unresponsive) Unexpected shutdown by OS WHAT ARE LEAKS? (and why they’re bad)

  4. HOW CAN WE DETECT LEAKS? Static Analyzer (Xcode) Instruments Code

    review
