One good thing about ANT is that it allows to create user defined tag by implementing the logic in a java class. These tags can be then used as a normal tag. 
 
Weblogic.jar has heaps of ANT supported libraries that can be used by the ant build script to build/deploy/undeploy the application.

most compelling advantage of ant is performance 
 
As compared with unix "make" script which fire off a separate javac process for each java source file, ant process its tasks in the context of a single process.

ANT is a tool used in server side component where it bulids XML files. So that it can run any where . 
 
it builds a relationship between a Program and a system. thus its a automatically generated a XML files in some IDE.

Ant is similar to Makefile utility in linux,Ant is extented with particularly

java classes,product ofApache.Inshort can be considered as a build tool helps in managing and building projects.Ant particularly works with Xmls it searches for build.xml which stores various dependencies and calling sequence of the modules.

For building the project we need Ant tool.
we need to write the code in build.xml.
ex:creating folders ,compiling classes and putting in particalar folder,for cleaning class files, every thing after deploying will be done automatically by using this Ant.See the ant script i.e build.xml file go through the tags,target tag etc

ANT is a kind of make tool, which can build complex enterprise applications and also can deploy the enterprise beans and deploy them in to appserver domain.  It is very difficult to maintain the classpath entries also to maintain the dependency among various tasks. Few key benefits with ANT are 
1. Signing the jars using JKS
2. Maintains the Classpath to build and create jars.
3. Building the complex enterprise applications, ensure the dependency among the tasks and deploy the EJBs into appserver container.
4. Building webservices by generating stubs and exposing the webservices using ant tasks etc,.

I guess the best thing about ANT is that it's easier to learn and works cross platform and cross programming language - which is a real bonus.

Memory leaks are caused by writting poor program design where Object reference are long lived and the garbage collector is unable to reclaim those objects..
