We're debugging a GWT app. Runs ok in Firefox, in IE6.0 starts working ok but after some time, it gets on its knees and starts to crawl. After doing some tests we're suspecting some memory problems ( too much memory used, memory leaks, etc ) Besides using taskmanager and processxp to watch the memory usage grow :)....¿do you recommend any other memory monitoring tool?

Like jprobe for jscript? :)

For now I'm using "sIEve": http://home.wanadoo.nl/jsrosman/

At the moment I'm using it to see how many bytes IE allocates ( and deallocates ) in response to user activity ( user opens a menu, GWT executes some javascript, IE allocates memory ).

I also tried these other tools but I don't have any conclusions yet http://blogs.msdn.com/gpde/pages/javascript-memory-leak-detector.aspx http://www.microsoft.com/downloadS/details.aspx?FamilyID=28bd5941-c458-46f1-b24d-f60151d875a3&displaylang=en
