Because in testing, you have to cause the leak to know it is there. If 
the isosurface object leaks, you won't know unless you happen to be 
testing the isosurface object when you have logging on. And you don't 
want to have the memory logging feature on all the time, since it can 
slow things down.
Also, it is sometimes a bit difficult to find out why some things are 
leaking...
