Patent attributes
A leak detection system may be configured to receive a plurality of memory use reports periodically from a user device. The memory use reports may include an indication of memory that may be used and/or allocated by/to a particular process, such as a process that may currently be running on the user device. The memory use report may further provide a relatively granular view of the allocation of memory associated with the process, such as by type of memory and/or category of memory associated with the process. The leak detection system may use the plurality of memory use reports to generate a memory profile associated with the process and particular memory types and/or categories of memory allocation. By analyzing the memory profiles, the leak detection system may be configured to identify a memory leak associated with the process on the user device.
