Could we have similar behaviour (i.e. data syncing) when going into a
sleep mode? Several days ago I've lost a file that I saved right before
my battery went low and then for some reason the system refused to resume
properly after a sleep. BTW, I wonder how it's possible on a softupdates
fs - my understanding was that I should have either older or newer version
of the file - not obsolutely useless zero-sized file (and nothing in
/lost+found). :(((
