Abstract
A system, method, and computer-accessible medium are disclosed for efficient generation of application snapshots. Execution of an application is stopped, wherein a plurality of memory pages are accessible to the application. By altering page permissions of the plurality of memory pages, a state of the plurality of memory pages is preserved while the execution of the application is stopped. The execution of the application may be restarted after the state of the plurality of memory pages has been preserved. The state of the plurality of memory pages may be captured after the execution of the application has been restarted.
