I currently learning it the hard way with a mobile app/framework I created. My biggest problem is managing views cleanup, beside that I find that backbone provide me with what I need to create a simple app.
The other thing is, when you start creating an app with backbone for the first time, you really don't know what lies ahead as far as memory management goes. It's really not something you expect to have to debug that at 3 weeks from launch.
