Not a fan. These tools over-report to the point of uselessness. I get 100 pages of things allocated once and released on exit - which are NOT leaks and not useful to fix. Except to satisfy an OCD impulse.
I imagine there's a way to get only a report of repeated allocations, but somehow I never can find it. I have to wonder, why doesn't the tool produce that report by default? Its what I always want.
Anyway I can count on 1 hand the times this class of tool has found anything of value. They are not worth the effort 99% of the time.
