On Linux, I only use hibernate, because suspend still isn't reliable for me... unfortunately, this takes upwards of 10 minutes to shut the machine downThat sounds like a bug. When you say 'hibernate', do you mean the hibernate script that is part of TuxOnIce? If so, you might want to mention it on one of the tuxonice lists, and see if there's anything that can be done to speed things up. My 12Gb two-disk machine takes under a minute to suspend.

I don't believe I'm using TuxOnIce, it doesn't appear that's what Fedora uses based on a quick search. It spends the time on preallocating space for the image (the exact wording is slightly different)... it would be nice if it at least had some sort of progress indicator. The part where it's actually dumping the memory to disk doesn't take close to as long.

That's actually two issues TuxOnIce solved quite nicely: smarter and faster preparation of the hibernate process, and showing progress while doing it (and also being able to cancel it while it's hibernating).
I haven't tried it in a while though. It used to be very reliable for me, but nowadays, I'm just using S3.
