title: Compressing the core files during core generation
body: <p>Is there way to compress the core files during core dump generation?</p>
  
  <p>If the storage space is limited in the system, is there a way of conserving it in case of need for core dump generation with immediate compression?</p>
  
  <p>Ideally the method would work on older versions of linux such as 2.6.x. </p>
