I think that's what this POC is related to right?

Do you have an idea how much work it's going to be to turn the POC into some MVP?

A day or two to get what's there productionised.

A little bit more to figure out how to bundle gcdump in our nuget and run it from there.

And a little bit more to do something intelligent with the resulting dump (e.g. send it as an attachment in an issue to Sentry).

About 3 days all up.

I've fork Filip's repo: https://github.com/getsentry/dotnet-heapview
Lets see if we get this reviewed by folks, and we can load the dumps in the attachment preview
