I wasn't aware that you were using garbage collection. Autorelease pools can still be useful under GC. If you destroy them using -drain instead of -release, that will signal the collector that this is a good time to perform a collection pass. However there are more direct ways to do this if you don't need to write code that also works without GC, using the NSGarbageCollector class.
