Would you like to Pause running Windows Processes

Nirmal today pointed out an interesting software, Process Freezer, which lets you pause any running process and resume it again later any time.  This is pretty useful when you find any of the process taking too much of memory consumption and disrupts you from doing anything else.

However In my opinion I dont think this will work effectively in all scenarios like Hardware input output operation. In case process is trying to save something on your physical media and you pause it, it might result in locking of that area and might not work right again later.

But what I would suggest is to try to pause it for may be max of 30 seconds and resume it again to see if the process stops consuming too much of resources.

I am creating a poll to see how many of you would really like to pause it. Just answer yes or no.
