Diagramming tool to depict objects

I wanted to know what tools (preferably free) can be used to layout a collection of objects and their relationship - simple relationship like members referring each other, inheritance, attributes et.al. I would prefer a tool with which I can create and update the diagram as quickly as possible.

I'm not familiar with UML, but it's probably what I'm asking about.

I really like Dia. It even has a Portable edition!

It's small, fast, cross OS, simple to use, and has a lot of built in elements (specially for UML modelling).

The only problem I can foresee for you is that it follows The GIMP's GUI design (separated window for the toolbox). I happen to like it, but many people hate it.

Keep in mind that this screenshots are quite old:

It also can be scripted with Python.

You also have StarUML, wich is open source and similar to Rational Rose, only a bit simpler.
