Has anyone managed to get good results running
valgrind vs. jackd or
apps for it?
My experience with Valgrind at work is you run it and it magically
tells you the exact line of code where you have a serious bug, which
is a good thing. But it has really high overhead. So I've been
considering running it against say, Rosegarden, which I crashed
repeatedly, but I'll beg off if someone has already been there and
done that.

A "trick" to run JACK apps in a debugger is to use a dedicated
non-realtime jackd for it.
jackd -t 600000 -r -n debug -d dummy
JACK_DEFAULT_SERVER=debug gdb --args <someapp>
Works with valgrind, too.
