I think you have to disambiguate two types of "breakage". One is suspending the thread, so to speak, and the other is functional destruction. I think perfectly non-destructive suspension of the process should not influence identity at all. Does an algorithm change its semantics if we pause the execution for a millisecond?
This also assumes that duplication requires either type of breakage--for thought experiment purposes you may assume that cloning is possible with 0 delay and with 0 destructive change.
If you care about which physical substrate the process is running on specifically, this is the bias towards physical continuity I noted.
