Manually change the MacBook standby time to speed up the wake

Thanks to the use of SSD, instant wake after hibernation is one of the key selling points of the MacBook. But when the standby mode is turned on, the MacBook's wake-up speed slows down, which, contrary to the purpose of the SSD, leads to a less-than-ideal user experience. So if you can't tolerate slow wake-up speeds, try the following methods.

Standby mode is a feature that Apple has launched on MacBook Pro with Retina display and MacBook Air, enabling the MacBook to have up to 30 days of standby time. In standby mode, however, the MacBook puts its use state into the SSD, causing the wake-up speed to become slower.

But for users who often use a thunderbolt monitor or MagSafe for the MacBook, the extra long standby time doesn't seem to be necessary, so if you don't need an extra long standby time, but hopefully the MacBook will "wake up" when it needs to, try Erv. Walter's method. He said on his blog ewal.net that you can change the standby mode manually, and if you change the standby time to a few hours, the MacBook will only take a few seconds to resume working from hibernation, which is no doubt a better user experience. However, if you want to maintain the longest possible standby time, it is better to keep the default settings, in fact, the wake-up time to wait a few seconds is no harm.

Finally, to remind you that the standby mode is open to meet the following requirements:

1. In battery-powered state

2. No external USB device

3. No SD card inserted

4. No pairing with Bluetooth device

5. No external monitor

6. Turn off power NAP functionality (power nap is a feature in Mac OS X mountain lion that allows users to check messages and icloud updates in hibernation)
