Lua Memory Validator - Snapshots

The Snapshots View displays the contents of any memory snapshots that have been created. Memory snapshots can be compared, showing the difference between one memory snapshot and another memory snapshot. Data in any memory snapshot comparison can be inspected to show the unique callstacks for each object type in the memory snapshot comparison. An integrated source code view displays the source code for each location in a callstack.

The snapshot view is very useful for determining objects that were created between two snapshots and which have not been collected by the garbage collector. Objects which should not have survived the second garbage collection can be considered to be memory leaks.
