That all depends on what is in the 400MB you discard.

The difference is "Just as if you'd never hibernated" vs something 
closer to "Just as if you'd only just started up". We can't make 
categorical statements because it really does depend upon what you 
discard and what you want to do post-resume - that is, how useful the 
memory you discard would have been. That's always going to vary from 
case to case.
