Huge HPROF file in installation folder.
java_pid2376.hprof
What is an HPROF file and what is it doing in my ADS installation folder.
C:\Program Files\Experian\Aperture Data Studio 2.7.3
It is 35 GB. I believe it is junk and is a result of an error.
@Henry Simms please comment .
would it be OK to delete it or would it affect my server installation in anyway.
I have deleted previously generated MDMP files with pid_hs_err files.

Hi @HussainSyed , you can delete this - It is a heap dump created by Java when an out of memory error occurs.
If the error was recent and the memory error unexpected, I would suggest raising a case with the local support team and including the application log (datastudio.log) for the relevant day: https://docs.experianaperture.io/more/contact-support

@Henry Simms , I have already created the tkt for mdmp dump files and experian support are yet to comeback on this.
Unluckily I have noticed this a bit late, but I can open another ticket for this.
Thank you for response.

I have removed the file from installation folder.
Do I need to shared the hprof error file as well with experian support?

@HussainSyed I think it's unlikely that support will ask for the full memory dump.
