about 2 seconds to resume and 10 seconds to get the eth0 connection again.  I suppose using a static IP would speed that
up....however I moved away from statics a long time ago....

Agreed not the case here.  I'll put it on the todo list, I will be interested to test what I've suggested however the benefit is 
only 10 seconds so other things will happen first.

>or if you've got so many machines that keeping track of all the ips is a problem.

How many would one consider to be the threshold here?  20?  30?  50?
