Yes, if we all could agree on _which_ compression and encryption algorithm(s) we want to use. It goes beyond that too, where do you want to save the image? In the swap device or a regular file? And don't forget about debuggability either. It's faster to do a snapshot/resume without shutdown/restart in the middle or just do a snapshot, and examine its contents. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
