I keep getting memory issues since updating my Sparrow version. I am a real noob at memory but it worked just fine before on ios6. Now the app just crashes most of the time before the game even loads up.
any ideas on how I would go about fixing this would be much appreciated. Even if you could just point me in the right direction. I've spent weeks developing this and now this 
The game actually plays fine when I've got it unthethered - just have issues while testing in xcode
You mean it only happens when you debug the app via Xcode (on the actual device), but not when you're running it standalone (in release mode)? Or do you have problems only in the simulator?
In any case, I recommend using "Instruments" to track down where the memory is lost. Start it via "Product - Profile". Try the "Leaks" instrument, and if that doesn't find anything, use "Allocations" to see which kinds of objects are continuously allocated, but never released.
I have problems mostly with it running in xcode with debug however after playing with the app in release mode I have noticed that certain things are just making it crash like when I call the social framework to share the score on Facebook, opening gamecenter and playhaven and revmob stuff.
I have used instruments and there are no leaks so that isn't the problem. I am using the latest version of sparrow and therefore I am using ARC.
it is mostly malloc that has the memory but I am unsure now on what to look for in my code. I have been doing some reading and on another forum I read that you have to set objects to = nil after I am done with them. What does the high number malloc suggest?
Thank you,
David
