(It's an odd sort of HAT.)

Trilby is an experimental heap analyzer for the Sun JVM, build specifically to provide quick answers to the question, "Who is using too much memory of type X?" Like MAT, it is designed to work with very large heaps (the largest to date being 20G, 230 million objects.) Key differences:

• It is command-line based (at this stage), so you can generate offline heap usage reports
• Object graph paths and skip filtering are built into the query syntax, which is helpful for focusing on a specific set of objects (in lieu of conditional terms, which are not available yet)

The current release (v0.1.0) is best characterized as "barely functional" and is intended for intrepid early adopters. Comments and pull requests are welcome.
