I got a request from a CU to implement circular logging. It means that when an output file becomes X bytes large - start overwriting the head of the dump file with the new data. This may be useful when logging output of -XX:+PrintGC -XX:+PrintGCDetails. The CU is interested in this feature on Windows but I do not see a difference.
