Apropos of nothing at all, here's a little tip from the Department of Lessons Learned: A CAAnimation retains its delegate, which is a severe exception to the general rules and expectations about memory management. Of course one can see why this might be (animations take time, so let's make sure our delegate still exists when we need it later), and it is called out loudly in the docs. But you might set the delegate without reading that part of the docs.
I encountered this when I accidentally created a retain cycle. Fortunately I was able to discover and track down the retain cycle quite easily, thanks to the wonderful Instruments app. m. -- matt neuburg, phd = m...@tidbits.com, <http://www.tidbits.com/matt/> A fool + a tool + an autorelease pool = cool!
