Memory problems with NSMutableDictionary, causing NSCFDictionary memory leaks?

It does look like you are over-retaining your array.

Didn't use Cocoa for years (that's why I can't tell you an exact answer :/). But I guess your problem is that you systematically use retain on your objects.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
