[CRIU] Memory dump time with incremental checkpoint

[Radostin Stoyanov]

Hi Ranjan,

memwrite_time: Time criu spend transferring memory pages into image
files (locally or on page-server)
pages_written: The total number of pages criu put into image files

You can find more information about the times measured by criu in
https://criu.org/Statistics
Also you can see these times with the --display-stats option.

Regards,
Radostin
