I wrote about the relationship between debuggers and logs a while back: http://www.scott-a-s.com/traces-vs-snapshots/

Totally agree with that. In my previous company we were always working with dumps for asserts/crashes and when I started working in my current company I was confused that they mainly use logs.
Now I can't go back to debugging without logs.
Using dumps is like looking at the consequences, looking at logs is looking at the causes.
