Program received signal: "SIGKILL" when starting recording in Instruments

Question

I would like to use Instruments to check for any memory leaks in my iPhone app.

But as soon as I'm pressing the record button in Instruments, the Xcode status bar is mentioning: GDB: Program received signal: "SIGKILL".

My app is of course not responding anymore on my iPhone.

Does anyone know what the problem is?

Please create break points, find out where it's crashing, and upload that section of the code. — sohel14_cse_ju, May 05 '11 at 12:09

Step 1 - Quit the Instruments, Xcode and Simulator.

Step 2 - Start Xcode.

Step 3 - Go to Run -> Run with performance tool -> Leaks.

Thats it!

I didn't see this option in Xcode 7, so I did Run > Profile and it worked as expected. – Matt Wagner Oct 21 '15 at 17:58
