    I'm having a problem with very slow resume from hibernation. Each time I shut down my laptop, the time to resume is longer the before. I can fix the problem by doing a full restart -- first resume is fast and then each succeeding one is slower. One time it took 15 minutes to come up.

    Has anyone seen this problem? Does anyone know how to fix it?

    That sounds normal I think. Because hibernation is saving to the RAM, and the more you use the RAM, the more your computer has to read the RAM when trying to boot it up. That's why doing a full reboot fixes it.
