Windows saves all volatile data in a file on disk.
Due to your amount of ram and presumaably a heavy fragmented file this
takes some time.
For that reaason my swap and hibernate files reside always on a small
own partition in the faster begin of the harddisk.

Less ram or above tips. A second fast hd for the two files will speed up
by reducing slow head movements of the system disk.

There are ata disks with 2048 and 8192KB of cache, the larger cache
might result in getting the maximum out of the disk when reading
consecutive blocks as is the case with the hiberfil.
