VMware Workstation 12 Suspend VM, disadvantages?

Question

Im working with VMware Workstation 12 and I never Suspend my Virtual Machines, because I don't trust the option to Suspend your Machine. Today I was searching about 2 hours, if there are any disadvantages in supsending your VM, but I couldn't find any.

I just can't belive that there aren't any other disadvantages than losing some little space on your local computer.

Have I missed something, or is suspending really that safe and good to use?

Info: All my VMs are running on Windows 10

Answer 1

In terms of resource consumption Suspend needs to save VM's current state, therefore used memory should be dumped to .vmss file. Creating this file and saving it - this is overhead you have.
