David Handermann commented on NIFI-13865:
-----------------------------------------

As mentioned on the pull request, although this is very useful for 
troubleshooting, it presents security issues due to the memory contents being 
dumped to the file system.

> Add HeapDumpOnOutOfMemoryError settings to bootstrap.conf

>             Project: Apache NiFi
>          Issue Type: New Feature
>          Components: Core Framework
>            Reporter: Matt Burgess
>            Priority: Major
>          Time Spent: 20m

> According to what I've read, we can add the following arguments to 
> bootstrap.conf for the NiFi JVM:
> java.arg.heapDumpPath=-XX:HeapDumpPath=./work
> java.arg.heapDumpOnOutOfMemory=-XX:+HeapDumpOnOutOfMemoryError
> and it allows NiFi to do a heap dump whenever an OutOfMemoryError occurs. 
> This could help diagnose OOM problems right after they happen which could 
> make debugging the potential issues easier.
