from Jargon File (4.4.4, 14 Aug 2003)
dump
 n.

   1. An undigested and voluminous mass of information about a problem or
   the state of a system, especially one routed to the slowest available
   output device (compare {core dump}), and most especially one
   consisting of hex or octal {runes} describing the byte-by-byte state
   of memory, mass storage, or some file. In {elder days}, debugging was
   generally done by groveling over a dump (see {grovel}); increasing use
   of high-level languages and interactive debuggers has made such tedium
   uncommon, and the term dump now has a faintly archaic flavor.

   2. A backup. This usage is typical only at large timesharing
   installations.
