Insure++ (http://www.parasoft.com) has almost all the same features as
purify (Parasoft, of course, claims they have more features) and is
available for Linux. I'm sure it's not cheap, but we have a site
license so I don't know the cost/seat.

It works, but does seem to add even more overhead to the executable
than Purify (execution time, memory footprint, etc.), although I've
only run purify on IRIX and have never run Insure++ on IRIX and so I
can't do an apples-to-apples comparison.
