The larger the size of the memory checkpoint the slower the restore is. We can reduce the size of the snapshot substantially and improve startup times by dropping the KV Cache before checkpoint and recreating it after restore. vLLM has functionality that does this built in as part of [vLLM Sleep Mode](https://docs.vllm.ai/en/latest/features/sleep_mode/).
