(Snapshot whole application, rather than just Python VM). And this idea is discussed on Python-dev ML several times. But I think it can be implemented as 3rd party tool at first. It is better because (1) we can battle test the idea before adding it to stdlib, and (2) we can use the tool even for Python 3.7. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue34296> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
