Best resource for memory footprint analysis for winforms app . .

So we have a winforms app that in the task manager should anywhere from 250 - 450 MB of memory. We are trying to figure out the best place to focus on to reduce memory footprint.

what is the best place to start?

I would suggest profiling so you can understand what is using the memory. CLR Profiler and ANTS Profiler are two profilers you may want to check out.
