[erlang-questions] Investigate an infinite loop on production servers

So I should go back to R15B ?

erlang:memory() gives me 

[{total,1525779584},
 {processes,1272881427},
 {processes_used,1272789743},
 {system,252898157},
 {atom,372217},
 {atom_used,346096},
 {binary,148093608},
 {code,8274446},
 {ets,1546832}]


But keep in mind that right now, there is no infinite loop, or memory issue at this exact time…
It will be more interesting to have that when the VM is asking for 14GB of memory, but when it does, the console is unresponsive, so I can't get anything then.
