A fast hardware-based checkpoint-restart mechanism is proposed in this paper. A circuit was developed and implemented on an FPGA as a proof-of-concept. Further the size and performance of this circuit was analyzed by instrumenting the cores and taking measurements with a commercial solid state (SATA2) drive. The same tests were measured using a modern Linux server with a conventional PCIe SATA2 host bus adaptor. The results suggest that the circuit would be a tiny fraction of a modern CMOS chip (less than 2%) while providing a significant performance advantage over a software-only solution.
