ProcDump for Linux is a Linux version of Microsoft’s Sysinternals ProcDump utility for Windows. It gives developers and system administrators a practical way to generate core dumps when an application meets specific performance or diagnostic conditions. The tool is useful when a process is unstable, consumes too much CPU or memory, throws .NET exceptions, crosses thread or file descriptor thresholds, or receives selected signals. It supports immediate dumps, repeated dumps, delayed dumps, and dumps triggered by monitored process behavior. It also includes resource tracking for certain allocation APIs, helping teams investigate memory leaks and unreleased resources. ProcDump for Linux is especially valuable for production troubleshooting because it captures diagnostic data without requiring constant manual observation.

Features

  • Performance-triggered core dump creation
  • CPU and memory threshold monitoring
  • Thread and file descriptor threshold triggers
  • .NET exception and garbage collection triggers
  • Resource tracking for memory leak investigation
  • Configurable dump count, timing, polling, logging, and overwrite behavior
