Right now to get information on the memory use (the fields TotalVirtualMemory, AvailableVirtualMemory and SystemMemoryUsePercentage...on Mac at least) at the time of a crash you need someone with admin access to crash-stats.mozilla.com to get that for you. This info should just be available on the public reports. If someone can point me to the parts of the code that need patched I'd be happy to have a go at fixing this.

There must be a reason, probably privacy or security concerns, why we hide those right now. Is there such a risk with that data? How large is it?

I don't believe there's any reason, there's no privacy risk to exposing this data AFAICT. I think we just treat all data from the client as private-by-default unless we explicitly make it public in the Socorro code.

Also please publicly report the field "OOMAllocationSize", which I just added in bug 716638. It will not be present in all reports.

Laura, this looks relatively easy and would be a big win for a bunch of people looking at our OOM crashes and bugs, is it possible to get this prioritized?

While we're piling on here, it would be great to get AvailablePageFile and AvailablePhysicalMemory (bug 720444) added as well.

Unless we're concerned about fingerprinting on Available{PhysicalMemory,PageFile}? It seems that you'd be able to fingerprint much better with e.g. the list of add-ons.

Lars, I don't think we have those in the processed json so you'll need to make a processor change first.

We need to get access to the the raw json in the UI to solve this.

Also added better error checking.

Thank you mightily :rhelmer for submitting a crash to stage for verification purposes. https://crash-stats.allizom.org/report/index/8331e757-0eee-43ba-9ad8-037c52120210 Bumping to QA verified on stage. The following fields are no present on crash reports: TotalVirtualMemory AvailableVirtualMemory SystemMemoryUsePercentage AvailablePageFile AvailablePhysicalMemory OOMAllocationSize

Yes, TotalVirtualMemory, AvailableVirtualMemory, SystemMemoryUsePerce are now visible on crash reports.

We should probably get a followup to format these better, or at least add units. (They're all bytes, except for System Memory Use Percentage, which is obviously a percentage.)
