Don't do that unless you are attaching something big.

http://emacsforosx.com/builds has nightlies.  Use the newest of those.

I forgot, you should start your Emacs like this:

% MallocStackLogging=1 .../pah/to/Emacs.app/Contents/MacOS/Emacs

and then run leaks.  It will then print a stack trace also.  This may slow 
Emacs down a bit.
