In Gumbo Flex Builder it tries to pre-filter the references to get rid of 
cycles and tries only to show paths from what we call gcroots, which are the 
places the mark algorithm walks in from.  In theory, the paths should have 
expand icons so you can see what the paths are back to the gcroots which should 
be a stack of one or more objects

Of course, Gumbo is pre-release and there might still be bugs in the filtering. 
 Post a snapshot of what you're seeing.

Subject: [flexcoders] Flex Gumbo profiler: Path 1, Path2, etc..


So I am trying to profile my application for memory leaks. I create a memory 
snapshot and when i look at the Object References, expand the reference I don't 
see objects, functions, mx., etc... holding a reference. I only see 7 items 
that say "Path 1", "Path 2"..."Path 7".

Is this something wrong with me or Gumbo?

I can't find the references, thus fix my memory leak.

TIA, J
