A comprehensive guide exploring why enabling HeapDumpOnOutOfMemoryError can cause significant performance issues in production environments, which OutOfMemoryError types actually trigger heap dumps, and better alternatives like JFR for memory leak detection and automatic service restart strategies.

A comprehensive deep-dive into JVM memory architecture covering heap memory, metaspace, thread stacks, and compressed object pointers. This technical analysis examines memory allocation processes, Native Memory Tracking, and provides practical examples using tools like jol, jhsdb, and JFR for understanding JVM memory management internals.
