WinForms App Memory Leak

I'm using a WinForms App built with IdeaBlade and DevExpress ... It looks to me like the DevExpress controls are causing objects to persist in memory. I'm trying to find what is preventing the garbage collector from removing then with little success.

Can anyone recommend an analysis app that is good at finding what handler, etc is holding an item in memory?

I've used AQTime 7 Pro and .Net Memory Profiler, but neither of them seem to make it clear what is causing the issue.

Cheers!

dotTrace Memory and dotTrace Performance are quite capable of handling intensive GUI applications where the ANTS profiler does not do so well.

dotTrace will tell you line by line where the culprit is. dotTrace is made by JetBrains who gave us ReSharper.

ANTS Memory Profiler from Red Gate may do the trick.
