Ever since updating to 10.9.5, my 2011 iMac takes way too long to wake from sleep. Like, 20 - 30 seconds, where it used to be nearly instantaneous. Needless to say, I'm not digging this new feature. I saw an almost identical question that was answered, but that was for laptops, and involved something called "power nap".
Any help? Please?

OS X Mavericks: Reset your computer’s PRAM
A small amount of your computer’s memory, called “parameter random-access memory” or PRAM, stores certain settings in a location that OS X can access quickly. The particular settings that are stored depend on your type of Mac and the types of devices connected to it. The settings include your designated startup disk, display resolution, speaker volume, and other information.
Resetting PRAM may change some system settings and preferences. Use System Preferences to restore your settings.

Hey thanks for the great reply Red. I've got to put a copy of your post somewhere on my computer, because I forget these things to fix problems. I guess my Mac works too good in-between problems... I just forget.
Here's toasting you with a shot of Vodka. Cheers.
