Numbers? See first post. Also see link in second post about how little time 
kernel takes to resume. Rest of this time is consumed by userland -- pm-utils 
and ubuntu scripts, videocard resuming and so on. Fixing this need optimisation 
of whole stack and some additional work. 
Videocard issues are fixed by moving modesetting to kernel (there is some old 
video on Phoronix showing differences). Intel modesetting is available on 
Fedora for example.
I am vaguely aware of other issues. Linux desktop stat()s too much files, waits 
too much and not paralleises things enough. Matthew Garrett's presentation from 
LUGRadio Live depicts sorry state of linux suspend and resume.
So, there is hardware like OLPC XO-1, where optimised stack allows resuming in 
300 ms. There are Macs, which are for all practical purposes identical 
hardware, yet with optimized OS X they resume in 3 seconds. And finally, there 
are Ubuntu systems, which resume slowly, ten times longer that macs, hundred 
times slower than XO-1. This bug is about deficency in Linux, about pointing to 
a problem (like famous bug #1). I'm aware that it cannot be fixed by just 
integrating other's work, but some development should be done by Ubuntu devs.
