maybe a good step is to make a scripts/bootgraph.pl equivalent for
suspend/resume (or make a debug mode that outputs in a compatible format
so that the script can be used as is.. I don't mind either way, and
consider this my offer to help with such a script as long as there's
sufficient logging in dmesg ;-)

that way we can SEE which ones are an issue.... and by how much.
