Yes. I often just copy the whole core dump, and feed it into the prompt.

I did that once: logging ended up taking 80% of the CPU leaving not enough overhead for everything else the system should do. Now I am more careful to figure out what is worth logging at all, and also to make sure disabled logs are quickly bypassed.
