I wonder, can something be put in a .emacs file so when emacs encounters an initialization error the first problem line number in the .emacs file would be stated automatically?

My environment is (maybe unfortunately) Cygwin64 under Windows, of course.
Occasionally while working emacs stops responding to me and I watch it's
memory consumption rise from 407MB to 1533MB along with a ramp in CPU usage.
I want to find out what it is doing and can not find any information on how
to monitor background activity in Emacs.

A tool I've used for that in the past is the cpu profiler.  Try to
M-x profiler-start, then try and reproduce the problem and then M-x
profiler-report.
