applications slow after returning from hibernation

[ar-jar]

When returning from hibernation, the Openoffice Impress becomes slow. One indication is that there is a delay of a few seconds when selecting a new slide from the Slide Pane. When I restart Openoffice, it again becomes responsive.

I suspect very strongly that the same goes for other applications. I get a lot of interruptions while listening to Internet radio with VLC after returning from hibernation. If I restart the computer, then it works ok again.

I'm running Ubuntu 8.04 with the latest updates as of today. The hardware is an AMD Phenom 4 core on an ASUS motherboard (I can provide details if necessary).

Thanks!

This is somewhat similar to Bug 329199 and Bug 334536

I notice this with Openoffice Writer, Kubuntu 9.10. I don't think it is every time it is hibernated.
We're not just talking slow .. it is absolutely unusable. Openoffice takes several seconds to respond to every keypress. Restarting Openoffice.org and reopening documents fixes it.

Has been this way for some time. Does not happen every time the computer is defrosted or I would have switches OSes by now.
I'm not sure file caches can explain this and not Intel Graphics (both explanations I've seen): Core2 Duo T8300 @ 2.40GHz & NVidia graphics
Other apps either not affected or not so bad that I really notice.
