For what is worth, Edward Yang is writing an excellent series on space leaks in Haskell: http://blog.ezyang.com/2011/05/space-leak-zoo/ http://blog.ezyang.com/2011/05/space-leak-zoo/ The series require Haskell knowledge but this summary is fairly readable if you have a good grounding on programming language theory and implementation.
