+# AFL++ snapshot feature
+
+Snapshot is a mechanic that makes a snapshot from a process and then restores
+it's state, which is faster then forking it again.
+
+All targets compiled with llvm_mode are automatically enabled for the
+snapshot feature.
+
+To use the snapshot feature for fuzzing compile and load this kernel
+module: [https://github.com/AFLplusplus/AFL-Snapshot-LKM](https://github.com/AFLplusplus/AFL-Snapshot-LKM)
+
+Note that is has little value for persistent (__AFL_LOOP) fuzzing.
