+ When a process has many links and/or monitors, it could

+ <p>Writing of crash dumps is significantly faster.</p>

+ <p>Binaries and some other data in crash dumps are now
+ encoded in base64 (instead of in hex), which will reduce
+ the size of crash dumps.</p>
+ <p>A few bugs in the handling of sub binaries in
+ <c>crashdump_viewer</c> have been fixed.</p>
+ <p>
+ Own Id: OTP-14686</p>
+ </item>
+ <item>
+ <p>
+ In order to allow future improvements, Crashdump Viewer
+ now checks the version tag of the crashdump to see that
+ it is a known format. If the crashdump version is newer
+ than Crashdump Viewer is prepared to read, then an
+ information dialog is displayed before Crashdump Viewer
+ terminates.</p>
+ <p>
+ If an incomplete process heap is discovered in a
+ crashdump, Crashdump Viewer will now display a warning
+ for this, similar to the warning displayed when a
+ crashdump is truncated. Incomplete heaps can occur if for
+ instance the literals are not included, which is the case
+ for all dumps prior to OTP-20.2.</p>

+ <p>The following improvements are done to Crashdump
+ Viewer:</p> <list> <item>Reading of crash dumps with many
+ binaries is optimized.</item> <item>A progress bar is
+ shown when the detail view for a process is
+ opened.</item> <item>The <c>cdv</c> script now sets
+ <c>ERL_CRASH_DUMP_SECONDS=0</c> to avoid generating a new
+ crash dump from the node running the Crashdump
+ Viewer.</item> <item>A warning dialog is shown if the
+ node running the Crashdump Viewer could potentially
+ overwrite the crash dump under inspection.</item>
+ <item>Bugfix: In some situations, Crashdump Viewer could
+ not find the end of the 'Last calls' section in a crash
+ dump, and would erroneously mark the crash dump as
+ truncated. This is now corrected.</item> <item>Bugfix: In
+ some situations, process info for a specific process
+ would be marked as truncated by Crashdump Viewer, even if
+ the crash dump was truncated in the binary section - and
+ not related to the process in question. This is now
+ corrected.</item> </list>
