Description dlipin 2009-10-01 11:49:27 UTC 
If the OOM happens it would be very useful if the heap dump will be send to statistics.netbeans.org together with the 
exception stack trace and messages.log (like it is done now e.g. for profiler snapshot in slowness detector). 
It would be very useful to analyze the OOM errors, especially random or rare ones.

Comment 2 David Strupl 2009-10-22 11:06:49 UTC 
One way to deal with the size (suggested by Marian) is e.g. to delete the old dumps when the issue is closed in issuezilla.
Comment 3 Jindrich Sedek 2009-10-22 11:14:29 UTC 
The major problem is not with server space, but with submit time. To protect server resources would be possible to 
delete files as suggested.

I'll do some prototype for next release and we will see the status
Comment 4 Jindrich Sedek 2009-12-09 01:58:25 UTC 
implemented; 
for OOM heap dump will be attached to a submit and it will be accessible at statistics web site. It won't be attached into bugzilla because bugzilla doesn't allow so big attachments.
