@omairhe If you have a smaller image, it will be much quicker to resume - possibly only a second or two, depending upon the speed of your storage device and the speed of your processor.
Thanks for the comment. The video shows hibernating with a 1175MB image (Evolution was open, along with video editing software). My lappy has a hard drive that does 50Mb/s. Since we use LZF compression, the image is saved at approximately 100MB/s.
To compare apples with apples, you'd want to hibernate immediately after a fresh boot, in which case the time to resume would be a lot less.
It's still fuckin' slow; considering it's a dual core machine. My laptop (1,7Celeron, 1,5G RAM) can cold boot much faster than this. Don't get me wrong, it's a cool software but it still need improvements (I don't know what; maybe you save the whole memory not just the used parts; but I'm just guessing)
@xv4uhiu2s503d7p has nothing at all to do with Tuxonice. Every single hibernation technique saves the contents of the whole RAM - even the Windows and Mac ones.
But Tuxonice can also compress it with various algorithms - thus making the "shutdown" slower (the compression stage) yet the next boot faster (the decompression & loading stage).
is there any video of how to install it and how to use it? i have no idea how to use it with my ubuntu 11.10

Tuxonice is a must have on my home pc. I'd like to see it in mainline kernel.

wat will happen if we hibernate TinyXP OS which has a 50mb pagefile usage...

Very impressive! I can't get hibernation to work on my EEE. I wonder if this'd help?

@unberyl
Actually with a fast enough processor it will speed up the write stage as well. (anything with more than one core pretty much)

@WorBlux yeah, didn't think about that at the time.
