Does your profiling tool tell you the classes of the objects being
created? Can you take a snapshot at two points in time, compare them and
see what is different? If we know the class of the objects being
created, it gives us a pretty good pointer as to where to start looking.
Without this information, it is needle in haystack time.
If your profiler doesn't do this, you probably need to get a new profiler.
