Yes, I did.  In my case, I need to increase extra_pages_allowance, and
unfortunately, setting that with ProcSetting in
/etc/hibernate/suspend2.conf doesn't seem to have any effect.  It
turns out that I need to manually

      echo 8000 > /sys/power/suspend2/extra_pages_allowance

I posted about this problem yesterday on suspend2-users, but so far
have not gotten a reply.
