In this scenario, the endpoint will experience intermittent memory spikes over the specified number of seconds. Memory will go from base line to spike and back to baseline a number of times. What makes this scenario different from the memory leak scenario is that we will have to figure out a way to automatically trigger the collection of a dump when the memory spikes.
