Do these tools (I tried memwatch) really help when only used on the
model source?  I had the impression that they all more or less replace
malloc/free/other calls with their own bookkeeping versions.
That means, as one doesn't use malloc/free, but the swarm code does,
you have to use them with swarm itself, i.e. recompile, which I tried 
but was too complicated.  Thanks for clarifications here.

I did Zone dumps too, everything fine.

http://www.in-berlin.de/User/rws/aquarium-0.02.3.tar.gz
which has a graph but you can easily comment it out if necessary.

Thanks,
