Have easily reproducable memory leaks, need to find them.
I'm running Ruby 1.8.6 on an windows7 x64 machine.
I checked out memprof, bleak_house et al. I can't find anything
compatible with my architecture / ruby version and prefer not to patch
VM.
would it be worthwhile trying to walk the GC or is there some gem /
tool or technique that I should be aware of?
Cheers,
Spurtus.

The only one I'm actually aware of (except perhaps Ruby based
implementations like Dike gem) is

You might also get some traction from using jruby-esque tools.

I would second the JRuby option. If it's a library problem and the
app/libraries all work under JRuby (they should unless they use things
we don't/can't support), using JRuby to search for leaks is a great
option.
Also see the first two posts in that series:
