I have wondered before if emacs could use CRIU on Linux to do this ( https://criu.org/Main_Page https://criu.org/Main_Page ).

- rurban 10y agoI've looked into criu. It's usable, but not as good as unexec and not yet properly supported from packagers. Even if only the build step needs it. And it doesn't produce a single binary, which is ok I guess for emacs. Easier IMHO is to keep maintaining a proper malloc implementation. glibc were not able to update to ptmalloc3 anyway, and now they want to destroy ptmalloc2 even more. I wouldn't trust them.
