No, I've kept MacOS, in order to be able to update the firmware. Which was
useful by the way to solve an issue my previous firmware had, that prevented
the integrated usb keyboard and trackpad from work properly.

I tried hard, but I didn't manage to make hibernate work. So I just suspend
and I'm happy with it.

No, it doesn't last 8 hrs if you use it. I didn't measure, because I usually
don't use it continously, but I would say 5 hrs? I depends on what you do
though.

Before you wipe we should check what firmware version you've got, so that we
can rule out that nasty bug that made me almost crazy.
