What are your sources? :-)

Last time I checked, in order to hibernate the computer you needed at

that x2 rule suggestion nor any other requirements on the /swap partition.

I can understand there could be a margin for security (let's say, provide 
an additional ~1 GiB plus the ram) but "twice" the ram sounds a bit 
unrealistic.
