Created application is working toooo slow, looks like there are a lot of memory leaks, there are a lot of pointers. So, please, can you advice some effective tool for run-time errors and memory leaks detection in Visual Studio C++?

First of all, the easiest thing to do is set your warning level to maximum (/W4) to detect potential problems at compile time.

Then for detecting memory leaks:

http://www.runtimechecker.com/ (not free)

Testing framework:

But you may find that a manual software inspection gives better results than any automated tool:
