Thanks for the reply. Turns out I added that autorelease after Leaks pointed to the line NSMutableDictionary *tmp = [NSMutableDictionary dictionaryWithCapacity:4]
(and to several other lines involving "tmp") as a leak source.

Either way, the program runs without crashing.

And I still don't understand why Leaks points me twice to a line that reads: [tmp setObject:[NSDictionary dictionaryWithDictionary:tmp2] forKey:@"Data"];

You need to review the Cocoa memory management documentation:

http://developer.apple.com/documentation/Cocoa/Conceptual/MemoryMgmt/MemoryMgmt.html

Specifically, the above is over-releasing the dictionary. If your program isn't crashing, it is only because you are over-retaining it somewhere else.
