I think there are settings to find memory overruns, but I don't know about leaks. I used to use Purify (now owned by IBM) to find memory leaks and buffer overruns.
Sometimes, real fast is almost as good as real time.

Anyway, using Google search with these terms "using gdb to find memory leaks" results in some seemingly helpful links. Check them out. Remember, Google is your friend!
