But by the time the lid is up to reach the power button, it's already out of sleep and operational…

    Lucky you! Mine just crashes when I try to enter Sleep mode leaving both screens on and frozen, and nothing at all working.

    Maybe try the kernel parameter amd_iommu=off if you have an AMD CPU (and you're talking about Linux and not Windows). I had the same problem and this fixed it for me.

    I remember when windows used to brag about incredibly fast boot times.

    Now, my 5 yo gaming PC takes about 30 seconds to wake up to the password screen. While my Linux laptop takes 15 seconds to go from cold start to desktop.

    For me I can reach the windows desktop in around 14 or 15 seconds (auto login), for most people the biggest bottleneck is a slow bios.

    Linux and windows normally have very similar boot times at least on my hardware.

    @Sustolic @VitoRobles 15 years ago initng in linuxmint was doing magic; booting system to gnome2 desktop in 3 seconds from grub. On PCs with intel motherboard this was about 4 seconds from poweron. And moreover, this was on HDD.Now all systems are bloated and cannot boot in 3 seconds even on SSD
