    <p>I have an iPhone app that is running great in the simulator. It responds well to the memory warnings by getting rid of everything that is not absolutely essential. When I run it on the device, it runs well. But after a certain amount of usage it crashes with error code 101 - which, from what I can tell, is the OS killing it due to memory usage. I can see the memory warning (I'm logging it), and my app responds to it, but dies shortly thereafter. </p> <p>If I look at the app in Instruments (either on the device or in sim), it doesn't find any leaks. In addition, the net memory usage is in the range of 600-700k bytes. Transitioning from the different views of my app increases memory usage (as expected), but when the views and controllers are released and dealloc'd, the memory usage never quite goes as low as it was. However, the addition is usually only something in the range of 1000-2000 bytes. So while Leaks shows me no leaks, I suspect there is an issue somewhere. I've also looked at all of the objects I'm allocating, and all of them seem to be reclaimed as expected. The only objects I see that keep increasing are GeneralBlock-N (where N is some number)</p> <p>Should I not pay any attention to Instruments net usage figure? What would be the next steps in trying to diagnose the issue? </p> <p>ADDED: I'm not making any calls to malloc() or any CoreFoundation libraries that would return a buffer that I'm responsible for. The only non-Obj-C calls I'm making are logging statements to NSLog.</p>

    1. COAre you allocating memory some other way and not freeing it? Such as with a CoreFoundation routine or a call to malloc() or some other system call that returns a memory buffer that you're responsible for?

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
