The usual hack is to dump an entire memory image to disk, either as an executable (see "gcore" and "undump"; also see how the GNU emacs build dumps a "preloaded" emacs executable) or by dumping the data segment as raw bytes and reloading it as such (which doesn't work so well in modern demand paged executables; it can work better with a virtual machine environment, and various Lisp and Smalltalk implementations dump and reload their raw VM images this way).</div>
