How to detect memory leaks in Flash?

Question

How do you know if a compiled SWF file has a memory leak?

Are there any tools, firebug settings, etc. to see if there is a problem? I cannot find much in the Flash debugging player besides file size and load time.

I have a large Flash application that I support and suspect is using too much memory, so I wanted to measure the amount of RAM used when it runs to find key areas for optimization.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
