Well, for me, when I hibernate the system tells me how much is used. I think
this feature was new (for me at least) with FC6. In FC5 it was just a blank
screen whilst hibernating.
I've run a few tests and the values seem a little higher than I first thought.
The average seems to be around 380MB, when hibernating a full X session with
KDE running, but most applications shutdown. The amount goes up a bit if I
leave them running when hibernating.
