need some help with my profile

I'm new to this memory-leak hunting, so please bare with me.

WPF app, C#.

In my snapshot analysis, I'm seeing 1711 classes, but only a few that concern me. And out of those, really, only one does - System.String

Live Size bytes are 506,824 (yowch)
Live Instances - 7880

Now, if I go to the Class Reference explorer, I see that 51% of my Strings belong to System.Object[].

48% are GC Roots, 4% Collections.ArrayList

I am at a loss on what to do next.

I did look at the list of my almost 8000 objects, I see things like multiple instances of items in my resx files - that really stood out at me. But I'm not sure where to go from here.

I appreciate any insight and direction that anyone can give me try to cut these string objects down.

Thank you so much!

    Please can you save your results and email them to support @ red-gate.com with the reference F0036950 in the subject line?

    If you haven't seen them already, there are a whole bunch of tutorial videos here: http://www.red-gate.com/products/ants_m ... /video.htm

    While they are not necessarily specific to wpf, the principles behind them can be utilized in the same way.
