Heap dumps should be deleted once they've been captured #4009

Closed

Description

@jamescrosswell

So yeah, we know where the dump file is and could just let people know the location where it's been stored, if it's too big to add as an attachment. I imagine a lot of folks wouldn't have access to it in a production environment though.

But if we're doing this now we need to keep track and delete old files etc to avoid a disk filling up.
If we're not sending to Sentry, I would delete the dump file and log diag logger error about it.

If Sentry increases the size limit one would need to bump the SDK (and we'd need to amend the SDK limits though)

    Hi @jamescrosswell , I noticed this was previously claimed but there hasn't been a PR in over a year. I've reproduced the issue and would like to work on it — let me know if it's still available.

    Hi @XAN9xXx - yes still up for grabs and a PR would be very welcome!
