Has anyone had any success with real time debugging applications such as
Purify, Insure++, etc. in debugging Performer applications.

I have spent some time debugging with Purify, to no avail. In order to perform
the tests, I locked down to one processor and created a wrapper to translate
amalloc and afree calls to malloc and free respectively (amalloc and afree are
called by pfMalloc and pfFree). Nevertheless, Purify spat out thousands of
errors messages which, on inspection, appeared to be in error themselves.

I just got an evaluation copy of Insure++, but I wanted to see if anybody out
there had any experience with this before I invest further time.

Thanks
