It is a heuristic anyway. I suggested this property just based on my gut feeling. I felt it would be beneficial to have a very first heap dump in series. It can be removed and awk can be eliminated. I suggested an option. If it does not look right, I will drop it. Agree about last/first. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
