1. An undigested and voluminous mass of
information about a problem or the state of a system,
especially one routed to the slowest available output device
(compare core dump), and most especially one consisting of
hexadecimal or octal runes describing the byte-by-byte

debugging was generally done by "groveling over" a dump (see
grovel); increasing use of high-level languages and
interactive debuggers has made such tedium uncommon, and the
term "dump" now has a faintly archaic flavour.
2. A backup. This usage is typical only at large
time-sharing installations.
