 Once memory state is written to disk, the system may either enter a
 low-power state (like ACPI S4), or it may simply power down. Powering
 down offers greater savings, and allows this mechanism to work on any
 system. However, entering a real low-power state allows the user to

 A transition from Suspend-to-Disk to the On state should take about 30
 seconds, though it's typically a bit more with the current
