Many do. This project is about checkpointing an application that wasn't designed for checkpointing, which I suppose saves the enormous engineering effort of building application-specific checkpointing into all the applications.

Can't checkpointing be done in user space? Posted Mar 6, 2009 8:14 UTC (Fri) by TRS-80 (subscriber, #1804) [Link] CyroPID is a user-space application that can checkpoint other processes without any special support. It doesn't work for all cases, although it's good enough for the "D'oh! I forgot to start this application inside screen(1)" use-case.
