trying with valgrind but the dsp hits 100% almost straight away (even on a 
small session any mouse movement pushes dsp load up pretty high) and if i try 
anything ardour gets disconnected from jack (even running non realtime) and 
although valgrind memory consumption grows (to 92.2% when i close the 
session) I dont think it hits the point to trigger the memory leak - the 
graph seems to indicate no leak anyway.  

Not sure what to do now.
