Thanks at least I've got numbers, I'm sure I'll find out how to improve
it in the future. I held down the left mouse button on shutdown and it
gave me the suspend to disk and suspend to ram options.
I test factory and in fact it's running very well at the moment. If
something breaks I don't update everything at once so I can roll back to
the previous version which also helps to find the bug.
Thanks again, I think I'll stay on kde4 now.
