I have a few patches that aim to refactor the --remote option and
(hopefully) serve as preparation for it to be merged into the master branch.

https://github.com/rst0git/criu/tree/remote-rfc-1

The idea is to integrate image-proxy with dump/pre-dump and image-cache
with restore in order to avoid the overhead of transferring images via
Unix socket and further optimize the way they are being cached.

For now, I have dropped the concept of snapshot (a.k.a 'namespace')
which is used by image-cache to identify 'parent' images, with the
intention to replace it with a mechanism that overwrites the old memory
pages stored on the destination side, rather then keeping them in a
parent namespace.

This is a demo the current state:

I'm still working on this but would it be of interest to have this
feature in the next major release?

Thanks,
