The following always works for me:

In my system it looks something like this:

valgrind --leak-check=full /usr/sbin/apache2 -X 

If you are using any 'XS' based perl modules, it would show memory leaks/errors, if any in any of the loaded shared libs.

Everything I've read about Apache::Leak says it points out lots of
false positives and can be a huge waste of time. Maybe I'll give it a
try anyway. I've got time to waste.
