    What’s the point of hibernation? You have so much stuff open in some exact state you can’t just turn off the computer?

    It takes less time for me to boot fresh than to resume from hibernation (32GB of RAM)

      Yes. I leave my laptop running in the office overnight, and at the end of the day I have a bunch of note documents, papers, code editors, and corresponding plots open and arranged among multiple monitors. It’s extremely annoying to re-do this setup the next day, so I leave it running. If hibernation worked reliably, I could turn the machine off at the end of the day.
