Generally you would be better off using something like homebrew: http://brew.sh/ It will take care of dependencies, updates etc and knows how to compile things. > Looking at Xcode's memory report (and using Instruments), Instruments isn't too bad, but IIRC does not do the same thing as valgrind. Instruments is a lighter less thorough functionality.

Only closing the connection will free them. (SQLite does have a boatload of custom memory management options, but your underlying issue is very unlikely in SQLite itself.)
