I have instrumented the global new and delete function in our app and the app calls to allocate memory seem fine. They account for about 10% of the process working set though. When I walk the heaps // http://...

I have an existing program written in OpenGL Performer. Because new licences aren't available and the existing code base is old and poorly documented I was thinking about going through, fixing up the code (eliminating warnings and other bad programming practices).
