If it's taking minutes, something is wrong. You should be looking at more like 10-30 seconds, depending on which implementation you're using, the speed of your cpu and hard disk and how much ram was saved in the image. For suspend2, for example, the rule of thumb is ram_in_use_in_MB() / hard_disk_speed() / 2 seconds + bios time + time to get to starting the resume Where hard disk speed is the result of hdparm -t. Assumes LZF compression (that's the /2).
