You and I have bantered back and forth about Purify over the years.
To be honest, when I was working on telco-class equipment, I was happy
to have both Valgrind and Purify for my daily work.  Both are
excellent tools.  I found bugs with Purify that I didn't find with
Valgrind, and vice-versa.

I'm a big fan of tools like this.

 From now on boys this iron boat's your home
 So heave away, boys.
