  -m      Memory commit thresholds (MB) above which to create dumps.
  -ml     Memory commit thresholds (MB) below which to create dumps.
  -gcm    [.NET] GC memory threshold(s) (MB) above which to create dumps for the specified generation or heap (default is total .NET memory usage).
  -gcgen  [.NET] Create dump when the garbage collection of the specified generation starts and finishes.
  -tc     Thread count threshold above which to create a dump of the process.
  -fc     File descriptor count threshold above which to create a dump of the process.
  -sig    Signal number to intercept to create a dump of the process.
  -e      [.NET] Create dump when the process encounters an exception.
  -f      [.NET] Filter (include) on the (comma seperated) exception name(s) and exception message(s). Supports wildcards.
  -pf     Polling frequency.
  -o      Overwrite existing dump file.
  -log    Writes extended ProcDump tracing to syslog.
  -w      Wait for the specified process to launch if it's not running.
  -pgid   Process ID specified refers to a process group ID.

procdump is a Linux reimagining of the class ProcDump tool from the Sysinternals suite of tools for Windows. Procdump provides a convenient way for Linux developers to create core dumps of their application based on performance triggers.
