Hi there,

How would you feel about integrating dmtcp (https://conference.scipy.org/scipy2013/presentation_detail.php?id=201) with nipype?

I'm currently missing it for the following. When using mrtrix3 or any other multithreaded method in debian jessie, there seems to be a bug causing a deadlock with my processor. This is a bit random, and it'd be a great relief for interfaces that take a lot of time running if you could continue them from a recent checkpoint, instead from the beginning.

This is just a thought, and I don't see clearly how this would be implemented in distributed environments (maybe keeping track of which unit you sent the job, and use dmtcp locally?).

What do you think?
