NSZoneStat is only supposed to work for special zones you have created, not for
the default zone. It's for cirecumstances where you are carefully isolating
your work in one or more non-standard zones.
If you are looking for general memory management, the default zone is
implemented using malloc/free and you can substitute a different malloc library
(eg tcmalloc) which will provide its own diagnostics. This is not GNUstep
specific stuff an you are better off asking in general (or C) programming
forums.
If you are interested in object allocation/deallocation (rather than total heap
memory), gnustep-base has a rich set of extensions to help with that (see
NSDebug.h) as well as some extra stuff to help deal with autorelease pools.
