What will be the best way to save all the objects created during a run of a program?  I suppose certain languages such as Eiffel allow you to do it using persistent objects.  I plan to use CLOS for simulation of a manufacturing system.  I would like to save all my parts and machines at any instant and restart the simulation from there again.  This may involve thousands of objects (instances).  I will be very thankful to anybody who can share their experience with me or indicate as to where I should be look





ing.  (If any of you think CLOS is not a good choice for my task, I would like to know the reasons too).

Thanks in advance.

(I am a novice CLOS/Lisp programmer)
