slow wake up problem of DX after v.3.2.1

2. manually power off by holding the power slider for 5 seconds...kindle will go blank

3. flick the slider to power on again...my kindle then comes to life after only 4 seconds!

as well as avoiding the slow wake ups, this setup gives me the advantage of having my kindle on all day when i need it without those annoying screensaver timeouts (i was using a hack to delay them anyway). i seldom have 3g on so battery drain is minimal. if i know i wont be using it for a few hours i just power it down fully.
Thank you max99 for the tip,

I tried disabling screensaver and then reversed back with screensavers enabled

~resumeScreensaver <Enter>
;debugOff <Enter>

and saw that my wake up from sleep issue has resolved. Before this, I was holding power slider twice sometimes three times to exit from screensaver. Now my Kindle DX 3.x experience is better

EDIT: Actually, the problem was not solved. It just solved short wake-ups for my Kindle Dx, waking from long sleeps as here peointed out takes approximately 14 seconds.
