Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention address deficiencies of the art in respect to core dump generation during application fault handling and provide a method, system and computer program product for privacy preservation of core dump data during application fault handling. In an embodiment of the invention, a method for privacy preservation of core dump data during application fault handling can be provided. The method can include receiving a crash signal for an application and generating a core dump with object data for the application. The method further can include obfuscating the object data in the core dump and writing the core dump with obfuscated object data to a file. In this way, the privacy of the object data in the core dump can be preserved.

Abstract: The memory used by individual users can be tracked and constrained without having to place all the work from individual users into separate JVMs. The net effect is that the ‘bursty’ nature of memory consumption by multiple users can be summed to result in a JVM which exhibits much less bursty memory requirements while at the same time allowing individual users to have relatively relaxed constraints.

Abstract: A memory leak detection scheme for use in a computer system (e.g., Java) by: finding an allocation site (410) which is responsible for allocating objects which accumulate in a memory heap (400); and monitoring memory activity related to the found allocation site to discover a memory leak related thereto. The technique can be entirely application independent and can be made fully automatic, running as a daemon process on a machine and detecting leakage in a number of client processes simultaneously.
