But you don't need BDS2006 for that - FastMM is FREE and can be used
with prior Delphi versions. I have successfully converted legacy
projects to this new memory manager and now have all my IDE's (D5 thru
7) setup to use it themselves.

I know - I had already investigated using FastMM with the D6 version of my
COM server (and other apps), and in fact used it to track down some
memory leaks.
The massive disadvantage of using FastMM with D6 though, is that
you can't compile with packages - you have to compile into a single EXE.

Is that different from D7 then? I use FastMM and packages without any
problem. Did replace the standaard delphi mm dll with FastMM as well
