I have used valgrind a few times. It's not like it's hard to use... :P

yes, but I expect it would be rather slow with something like POV ... ;]

Does a 1000x1000 pixel image give errors that a 10x10 wouldn't? Apart from
buffers, I would think it would all be the same. (In other words, my programs
tend to fail the first valgrind test just as miserably whether I do a 1000x1000
case or a 10x10 case...)

In theory it's possible for the 10x10 render to miss some critical part
which the 1000x1000 doesn't.
