10.5: Disable Safe Sleep for faster sleep on lid close
Authored by: spamathon on Jan 02, '08 02:29:10PM

This also works on 10.5 but with a caveat (that may well have been in place in 10.4, I just didn't figure it out until now).

Be aware that *any* changes you make with pmset change your active profile to 'Custom'. That means if you follow the above tip by setting hibernatemode to 0 your active profile switches to 'Custom'. Then if you switch back to one of the default Energy Saver profiles (Better Energy Savings, Normal, or Better Performance) hibernatemode is set to its value for that profile, which is 3 and will always be 3, apparently. The defaults cannot be changed.

So to take advantage of this tip permanently, your Energy Saver profile must always be set to 'Custom'.

Bit of a PITA really...
