I'm using Hibernate (aka. suspend to disk), and I'm quite satisfied with it. My boot times for a slow C3-600 system: - Power-on to GRUB boot: 12s - GRUB to OS up-and-running including DVB drivers: 15s - VDR up-and-running: 15s In total, the system needs about 45s to be up, with just 15s being OS related (debian/etch-a-half). The system is also not optimized for being very light-weighted, its mostly a normal debian without X. Booting the stock debian kernel takes roughly 60s longer, a selfmade kernel without initrd would also be noticeably faster.
