From: Bojan Smojver on 30 Jul 2010 01:10 This patch speeds up hibernate/thaw operations (in kernel ones) by compressing the pages using LZO. Tests on my ThinkPad T510 show that hibernation times can be cut by the factor of about 4 for an image of around 1 GB (from about a minute down to about 15 seconds). I'm not really familiar with kernel internals, so many of the things in this patch could be very, very wrong. But go easy - this is essentially the first time I've attempted something like this. PS. I'm not on the list, so please CC me if you'd like to contact me. -- Bojan |
