-gc is a fairly flaky option and it can only be used if your entire application only consists of FPC code.

In general, I would strongly recommend against ever using it, because you'll mist likely spend more time debugging issues caused by it than it will save you.

For debugging memory issues that aren't caught by heaptrc, use Valgrind (Unix) or Dr. Memory (Linux, Windows)
