As Steve said, libumem will be your best tool for this job.
Is the program zone-aware? The program might behave differently (i.e.,
its logic is different) while running in non-global zones and the
alternative code paths might be leaking memory.

I recommend using libumem on the application.
Some folks were nice enough to write about it.

Hello,
I'm struggling with the following problem and I have no idea how to
solve it.
I'm testing an application which is running fine on a global zone,but
memory leaking when installed on a local zone.
The local zone has its whole root and a very simple, basic configuration:
bash-3.00# zonecfg -z mdmMDMzone
zonecfg:mdmMDMzone> info
zonename: mdmMDMzone
zonepath: /mdmMDMzone
brand: native
autoboot: true
bootargs:
pool:
limitpriv: default,dtrace_proc,dtrace_user,proc_priocntl,proc_lock_memory
scheduling-class: FSS
ip-type: shared
net:
address: 192.168.109.14
physical: e1000g0
defrouter not specified
One of the application processes, when started on global zone, has an
rss of about 5 GB ( prstat -s rss ) and it keeps this size to the end of
the test. If I stop the application on global zone and I start it on
local zone, the same process starts with the normal size ( 5gb on prstat
-s rss ) but is growing during the test ( I saw it 25GB on a server
with 32 gb RAM ) until is failing. I don't understand why is this
behavior and if the application has a memory leak, why I don't see it on
the
global zone.
Any help is more than welcome!!!
