Prior to or while the state of a virtual machine (“VM”) is being saved, such as in connection with the suspension or checkpointing of a VM, a set of one or more “active” memory pages is identified, this set of active memory pages comprising memory pages that are in use within the VM before operation of the VM is suspended. This set of active memory pages may constitute a “working set” of memory pages. To restore the state of the VM and resume operation, in some embodiments, (a) access to persistent storage is restored to the VM, device state for the VM is restored, and one or more of the set of active memory pages are loaded into physical memory; (b) operation of the VM is resumed; and (c) additional memory pages from the saved state of the VM are loaded into memory after operation of the VM has resumed.
