Cocoa doesn't bother doing a full release/dealloc of your application object (and the things it owns) at application termination. The principle is that the OS is about to cleanup the whole process's address space in one fell swoop, so there's no point in doing it piecemeal first.
I think his question, and I've wondered about this too, is when do NSWindowControllers owned by an NSDcoument get deallocated? In the past I've put breakpoints on [NSWindowController dealloc] and have open and closed documents like crazy, and -dealloc never seems to get called:

My question is about creating and destroying my controller. I have - initMyController and -windowDidLoad methods, which handle setting up my controller, but for some reason my -dealloc method is never called, even when the main app quits. In fact, the -dealloc method in the main controller is never called either. (I did not work on the main controller code.)
