<p>A set of high value state in application state for a software application can be distinguished from a set of low value state in the application state. For example, a set of heuristics can be run on the application state to distinguish between the set of high value state and the set of low value state. A set of designations that designate the set of high value state in the application state as high value and that designate the set of low value state in the application state as low value can be generated. When processing the application, the high value state can be processed differently than the low value state. The application may be packaged as a virtual application.</p>
