Random curiosities regarding Windows 7 hibernation --
1.) If you were to cut your hibernation file size down to the minimum 50% (of physical memory), wouldn't this make hibernation faster than a 100%-sized file, given that the CPU compressing will probably finish much faster than the time it'd take to copy that extra 50% to disk (assuming 12GB+ of physical memory)?
2.) Whether your h-file is 50% or 100%, what happens if everything can't be fit into it, even with compression? Will Windows choose to leave something out? Would hibernation fail?
