I have a feeling my map has a memory leak or two somewhere. After playing for 20 minutes, some players complain about lag, sometimes some timers are a few seconds off, etc.

But I know of no way how to actually detect those memory leaks. What should I look for? What should I avoid? Is there a tool of sorts to find leaks?

Location leaks can be fixed pretty easily (though i'm no expert). look to the link for "things that leak" i gave you and read some of it. Also, as far as i know there is no leak fixer tool. Even if there were i wouldn't use it because such tools demote effort imo.
