I ran across this interesting nugget today:

> CryoPID allows you to capture the state of a running process in Linux and
save it to
> a file This file can then be used to resume the process later on, either
after a reboot
> or even on a different machine.
...
> Yes checkpointing software such as this is nothing new, but I was unable
to find a
> tool that worked on Linux that did not require at least one of the
following:
> 
> o  root privileges
> o  modifications to the kernel
> o  recompiling/relinking your software
> o  using an LD_PRELOAD when you start your program
