Hence, in Java, Lisp, or Visual Basic, for example, automatic memory management reduces occurrence of any memory leaks. These languages can however still have leaks; unnecessary references to objects will prevent the memory from being re-allocated. IBM has a product called Rational Application Developer to uncover these sorts of errors.
BoundsChecker is a memory checking and API call validation tool used for C++ software development with Microsoft Visual C++.It was created by NuMega in the early 1990s. When NuMega was purchased by Compuware in 1997, BoundsChecker became part of a larger tool suite, DevPartner Studio.
DevPartner Studio (DPS) is a suite of tools allowing a developer to analyze native (unmanaged) and .NET (managed) code for: Code quality and complexity; Memory leak detection; Memory optimization; Performance analysis (timing) Performance expert (CPU, disk and network resource usage) Code coverage analysis; Fault simulation (both .NET and ...
AQtime is a performance profiler and memory/resource debugging toolset developed by SmartBear Software. It is integrated into Microsoft Visual Studio, Visual Studio Test Projects, and Embarcadero RAD Studio, which allows analyzing the application without leaving the development environment.

CLR Profiler is a free memory profiler provided by Microsoft for CLR applications. GlowCode is a performance and memory profiler for .NET applications using C# and other .NET languages. It identifies time-intensive functions and detects memory leaks and errors in native, managed and mixed Windows x64 and x86 applications. Visual Studio
A memory debugger is a debugger for finding software memory problems such as memory leaks and buffer overflows. These are due to bugs related to the allocation and deallocation of dynamic memory . Programs written in languages that have garbage collection , such as managed code , might also need memory debuggers, e.g. for memory leaks due to ...
Valgrind — Valgrind is a programming tool for memory debugging, memory leak detection, and profiling. VB Watch — debugger for Visual Basic 6.0; Visual Studio Debugger — debugger for .NET and native Windows applications; WinDbg — multipurpose debugger for Windows; Xdebug — PHP debugger and profiler
The "sawtooth" pattern of memory utilization: the sudden drop in used memory is a candidate symptom for a memory leak. If the memory leak is in the kernel, the operating system itself will likely fail. Computers without sophisticated memory management, such as embedded systems, may also completely fail from a persistent memory leak.
