More context:

At present we have GC records showing in the timeline, which is great. What it doesn't tell you is what was picked up in GC, specifically that which relates back to your code. So if you're using a lot of temporary variables or anonymous functions somewhere in your code it is very difficult to find, especially if you have a large codebase. A suggestion here might be to in some way track the allocations so that you can see the top scoring items. So in effect if a developer is looping through an array and effectively assigning the same logical function as a callback then we can point at that to say "this function is being allocated a lot".
