Here's a small update to this I thought might be interesting to someone. Namely, I replaced the rotational disk in the Toshiba Portege R500 with an SSD and ran a few suspend/resume speed tests with the KMS on (the previous results for the R500 are with the userspace modesetting). The results are here: http://www.sisk.pl/kernel/data/r500-ssd/ As you can see here: http://www.sisk.pl/kernel/data/r500/times-r500-async-resume.txt http://www.sisk.pl/kernel/data/r500-ssd/times-r500-async-resume.txt the resume times changed quite a bit. First, the device 0:0:0:0+ (the SSD) now takes about 0.33 s to resume (the rotational disk took about 1.7 s), pretty much as expected. Second, the slowest resuming device is now the graphics (1.1 s), while without the KMS it resumed in no time. The device suspend times also changed: http://www.sisk.pl/kernel/data/r500/times-r500-async-suspend.txt http://www.sisk.pl/kernel/data/r500-ssd/times-r500-async-suspend.txt but 0:0:0:0+ is still the slowest suspending device, although it takes 200 ms less to suspend than the rotational disk. Overall, synchronous suspend of devices takes about 600 - 700 ms and synchronous resume takes about 4 s. At the same time, asynchronous suspend of devices takes about 300 - 350 ms and asynchronous resume takes about 1.1 - 1.2 s (that is with the async resume threads started upfront). So, with the asynchronous suspend/resume the total times are roughly equal to the suspend/resume time of the slowest device and the resume speedup is more than 70%..
