Slow wake up after installing lion (Macbook Pro 2010)

that is one of my problems too. hopefully an upgrade will come in soon.😐

same here.... hope an upgrade could fix this..😐

Same here. Not only that, after it wakes up and if I try to load up an application, it takes forever and most apps will go into the "Application not responding" mode. It is really frustrating. The transition is definitely not as smooth as previous OS upgrades. Hope a fix is coming soon.

I am having the same issue as well...takes at least 10+ seconds to wake up from sleep. Very annoying and needs to be addressed in an update very soon. I like everything else about the upgrade so far, but this issue almost makes me wish that I didn't switch to Lion from Snow Leopard.

My iMac is even worse: sometimes never truly wakes up!

Similar problem here - only on a brandnew macbook air with Lion pre-installed. Wakes 2x slower then my 2010 macbook pro with snowleopard.

Similar issue with Mac Pro:

I'm having the same issues with my 2006 C2D iMac. In snow leopard, wake was under 2 seconds, now it's over 10 seconds.

My 'Late 2010' 11" Air is much much slower to wake from sleep now. form a second or so on 10.6 to more like 15 seconds on 10.7. It was a clean install too.

Very dissapointed.

Lion like/love ram a lot and Lion relay on ram a lot so something that with SL may no necesary but yes a advice with Lion is more than necesary and almost a obligation and is to have the maximum or ram your machine support and take care of your work to don't open apps that you no using etc ..

Go to preferences, click on startup disk and click on the disk. It worked for me.

I deleted the sleepimage from /var/vm/ .

That seemed to help..

I seem to have fixed this issue. I ran Disk Utility and it showed error in the file structure. I rebooted into to Lion Recovery partition and ran Disk Utility, did a repair, and now (for the time being) it wakes as expected without all the whiring fans and falling back off to sleepland.

One gotcha with the recovery partition boot is that it doesn't recognise Magic Mouse, and I had to dig out my USB mouse.

Hope this info is of some help.

I managed to fix my issue as well. Turns out that the external hard drive that was conencted to my computer for time machine was going bad. I disconnected the faulty drive, and voila, my computer now wakes up quickly (under 2 seconds), and nothing lags or freezes as it was doing before.

I'm coming to the conclusion that this issue is caused by faulty hard drives or corrupted volumes.

I'm having the same problem, sometimes I'm waiting 30+ seconds for anything to become responsive. It used to be alsmost instant after startup or wake. It seems like the system is waiting for my AirPort to reconnect (which also seems to be very slow and used to be instant) and my external FW800 drives to spin up (which never caused the OS to lag). Hopefully this is addressed in a future update!

I like Lion and I think some things are faster, but I'd have to say overall that with the random stalls and slower performance in some areas, overall I feel like it is actually slower than Snow Leopard. Oh well, I'm sure a update is soon to be released.
