When I run Project/Profile in Xcode and choose "Zombies", the app runs in the simulator with "NSZombie detection" enabled. But what should I be looking for to tell me that there is a problem? All I see is the Allocation instrument running and the statistics below. Where will it actually show me that a Zombie was detected?

    This explains it pretty thoroughly: [iPhone Memory Debugging with NSZombie and Instruments](http://www.markj.net/iphone-memory-debug-nszombie/) [Caveat: Demonstrated using XCode3 - all applicable to XCode4 though] – marko Aug 23 '12 at 19:23

You will get the leak above the object allocation bar. Check this image; enter image description here
