hibernate: swap on SSD = not fast



Hi,

Mindful of what Stan Hoeppner in various posts has written about SSD I thought I'd put swap on an SSD I installed (Samsung SSD 830 128GB) in order to get superfast hibernate.

Surprise: it is slower than usual and the disk light is on.

swap is here:

+ cat /proc/swaps
Filename Type Size Used Priority /dev/sdb3 partition 19535036 0 -1

which is on SSD:

...
/dev/sdb3: LABEL="SSD830.03" UUID="ede71620-d8fa-47fd-8aee-0e8b37f9e982" TYPE="swap"
...

and this is the kernel cmdline:

BOOT_IMAGE=/SDB2.boot/vmlinuz-3.4.7-nodeb-amd64 root=LABEL=SSD830.02 ro vga=791 nouveau.modeset=0 resume=LABEL=SSD830.03

Is there an explanation of this? It takes about 20s. to hibernate when swap is on SSD.

Hugo
