How do you guys monitor the memory usage?

Like,

images: 12.8 mb
sounds: 2mb
game engine: 8.2 mb
other: 28 mb

How do you do that? Use Gamesalad or Xcode or something else? I really need to check the memory usage of my game, it crashes every couple minutes...

If you install the GameSalad viewer on the device you are trying to test, it'll show you those values when you preview you're game.

Thanks for reply! I think the GS viewer is only for Android, right?

I'm working on an iOS game right now. Is there any similiar way to do this?

You can install the IOS viewer on the IOS Simulator and check those numbers. This video was a huge help when I first started....
