A "hang" refers to a situation where an application becomes unresponsive, often due to issues like memory pressure or inefficient code execution. For example, during heap memory analysis, a hang can occur when the app briefly stutters or becomes unresponsive during the snapshot process. This is discussed in the session Analyze heap memory.
