Re: [Devel] Re: [PATCH 0/9] OpenVZ kernel based checkpointing/restart

Quoting Andrey Mirkin (major@xxxxxxxxxx):
Anyway we should ask everyone what they think about user- and kernel- based
process creation.
Dave, Serge, Cedric, Daniel, Louis what do you think about that?

I prefer kernel. Pretty sure Dave prefers user-space.

I'd say the thing to do is push the core API that supports single-thread
c/r. Then try to push the patch to do recreate processes from the
kernel, and let the arguments for and against that stand on their own.
