Perhaps someone could clarify a bit on how hibernation works. Is there any sort of compaction of the system memory before it's written to swap. By this I mean if I have 2 gigs of RAM is it always going to write 2 gigs to the disk or will it only write 300 megs for the apps that are open. This goes to the last comment in which we deal with not having enough swap. Would closing down all apps actually allow us to fit the hibernation file into a small (smaller than RAM) swap space?
