How to resolve a memory leak in GWT?

Question

What\'s the best way to resolve a GWT memory leak due to the fact that GWT is compiled in javascript and code is written in JAVA ?

Answer 1

In GWT development mode you can use a Java profiler such as VisualVM or JProfiler (disclaimer: JProfiler is developed by my company) to analyze the heap.

The GWT development mode should show the same leak as well, except for the less likely case that the leak related to the Javascript translation (which would then be a bug in GWT).
