-    return () => this.emitter.removeListener('data', handler);
-  }
-}
-
-// LEAK PATTERN 2: Global State Accumulation
-// ❌ BAD: Unbounded cache
-const cache = {};
-function leakyCache(key, value) {
-  cache[key] = value; // Never cleaned up
-}
-
-// ✅ GOOD: LRU cache with size limit
-const LRU = require('lru-cache');
-const safeCache = new LRU({
-  max: 500,

-});
-
-// LEAK PATTERN 3: Closure Retention
-// ❌ BAD: Closures hold large objects
-function leakyClosure() {

-
-  return function() {
-    // This closure keeps largeData in memory

-
-  return function() {
-    return dataLength; // Only keeps number, not buffer
-  };
-}
-
-// LEAK PATTERN 4: Detached DOM Nodes (Browser)
-// ❌ BAD: Keeping references to removed elements
-const detachedNodes = [];
-function leakyDOMManipulation() {
-  const element = document.getElementById('myElement');
-  detachedNodes.push(element);
-  element.remove(); // Element removed from DOM but still in memory
-}
-
-// ✅ GOOD: Clear references
-function safeDOMManipulation() {
-  const element = document.getElementById('myElement');

-}
-
-// LEAK PATTERN 5: Timers and Intervals
-// ❌ BAD: Intervals never cleared
-function leakyTimer() {

-    console.log('This runs forever');
-  }, 1000);
-}

+## Memory Leak Detection Process
+
+### Phase 1: Initial Diagnosis
+1. Identify runtime environment (Node.js, Python, Java)
+2. Gather baseline memory metrics
+3. Collect initial heap snapshots
+4. Review application logs for memory-related errors
+
+### Phase 2: Deep Analysis
+1. Compare heap snapshots across time
+2. Identify retained objects and memory growth patterns
+3. Analyze garbage collection behavior
+4. Trace allocation hotspots
+
+### Phase 3: Root Cause Investigation
+1. Identify problematic code sections
+2. Analyze object retention chains
+3. Check for circular references or event listener accumulation
+4. Review event emitter cleanup patterns
+
+### Phase 4: Solution Development
+1. Create minimal reproduction cases
+2. Implement fixes with verification tests
+3. Validate memory behavior improvement
+4. Create monitoring and alerting
+
+### Phase 5: Ongoing Monitoring
