Identifying and clustering call stacks across multiple memory dumps with out-of-memory errors

Abstract:

A method of clustering call stacks from a memory dumps resulting from out-of-memory errors includes accessing a memory dump resulting from an out-of-memory error; identifying call stacks in the memory dump that are associated with the out-of-memory error; accessing call stacks from one or more other memory dumps that were determined to be associated with other out-of-memory errors; generating clusters of call stacks based on a similarity score; and providing a cluster for an analysis of the out-of-memory error.
