Subject: [PATCH 2/2] PM / Hibernate: Make default image size depend on total RAM size
Date: Wed, 15 Sep 2010 00:23:30 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <201009150023.30635.rjw@sisk.pl> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <201009150021.45101.rjw@sisk.pl>

From: Rafael J. Wysocki <rjw@sisk.pl>
Subject: PM / Hibernate: Make default image size depend on total RAM size

The default hibernation image size is currently hard coded and euqal
to 500 MB, which is not a reasonable default on many contemporary
systems.  Make it equal 2/5 of the total RAM size (this is slightly
below the maximum, i.e. 1/2 of the total RAM size, and seems to be
generally suitable).
