Purify is the best tool I had worked with. It works well on multithreaded
apps. 
It does not touch your code ( opposing to Insure++ ). It is reliable and
points to 
bugs in hellish efficiency. However, there is a catch. 

It is for WinNT( ++ ) or Solaris on SPARC only. period.

No soup for Linux. 

So if you have common source base that should be portable freely between
Linux and Solaris, 
Purify is an option, maybe with addition of Insure just to be able to catch
bugs on non-portable
code. Otherwise...
