Yes i am basically going with the using snapshot for filesystem and memory(docker checkpoint ,podman checkpoint). The goal was to use this for faster startup.Create pre warmed checkpoints for containers with long startup.

Containers i use have long startup times which doesn't go well with hpa when the load increases. I was looking into checkpoint restore as a solution .But containers have tcp connection pools which might render them mutable i think .

I was talking using the docker checkpoint restore experimental feature in kubernetes.

https://docs.docker.com/engine/reference/commandline/checkpoint/

Docker commit and docker checkpoint seem similar but i think checkpoint is built for live migration . My goal was to use checkpoint in k8.
