I am not at work, but IIRC, the main difference is that debug zeros all
unitialized memory. It also has many facilities for debugging errors with
allocated memory, e.g. out of bounds writes, using freed memory, not freeing all
memory. Browse through the help system under debugging and see what you find (or
wait until someone gives a better answer).
