Hi Michael, I use regularly Purify on ROOT and all our tests run without memory leaks (according to Purify). I've also tried Insure++. With a previous version I had problems compiling ROOT, but with the latest version it seems to work fine. For some time there was even a ParaSoft (makers of Insure++) engineer on the roottalk mailing list who was specifically testing Insure++ compatibility with ROOT. If he did his work properly Insure++ should work fine with ROOT on most platforms. Cheers, Fons.
