How large was the stack dump? I'm impressed you identified it this quickly considering the time it would take to get this to disk.



We have an internal tool where we can dump stack traces almost instantly by attaching to a running process. We can't open source it due to using Microsoft lab code which was never licensed itself. However, clrmd (https://github.com/Microsoft/clrmd and https://www.nuget.org/packages/Microsoft.Diagnostics.Runtime) means an open source version is hopefully on the horizon. As an example, here's the result of me piddling in 2 hours with LinqPad: https://gist.github.com/NickCraver/d6292c0c7f93767686e8c5c89... Process attachment is in the clrmd roadmap, but isn't stable yet.


Awesome. Thanks for the response, love your work Nick.
