Hi Alexey,
I can't answer your question re: VPC however I thought I'd share my
experience using snapshots.
They work as advertised. I believe there's an enhancement request to allow
multiple branches rather than a degenerate case:
*----> [snap #1 ] ---> [snap #2] ... [snap #N]
Verus what I'd like to see is:
*-----
/ \
[snap #a] [snap #1]
/ \
[snap #b] [snap #2]
/\
/ \
[snap #x] [snap #y]
What feature I like about VirtualBox is the ability to merge a snapshot with
the previous snapshot. It's not obvious from the right-click'ed menu that
when you 'discard' at the previous level, you are about to merge. I should
submit an enhancement to get the menu cleaned up.
I hope the above helps.
Cheers,
-pablo
