[Bug 1459899] Re: 1-10s delay to screen lock when coming out of suspend/hibernate

 

This is an unwinnable race condition; if it is important to you that
your session be locked upon resume, please manually lock your session
before suspending.

Thanks

Title:
  1-10s delay to screen lock when coming out of suspend/hibernate

Status in gnome-screensaver package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  My laptop is set to lock and require my password after resuming from
  sleep.  If I close my laptop screen (thereby inducing a sleep state)
  and open it back up again, there's a significant delay (1-10 seconds!)
  before the lock screen appears, and it seems like the delay depends on
  the amount of RAM in use. During that delay, not only is everything on
  the screen visible, but also the end user can still interact with
  everything!  It's a pretty jarring security issue.

  I've been experiencing this issue since v13, but haven't minded much
  until recently since the delays have become much worse (might just be
  due to my laptop aging though.)
