My experience with suspend has not been good - causing glitching and requiring shutting the game down and reloading from a previous save whenever I suspended in a cut scene. As a result I haven't used it much due to those first couple of trials; maybe it's better now.
I have noticed a slight reduction in framerates when loading back in from a suspended state but only on certain games. Namely High On Life
I was in the middle of Witcher 3 when I got my deck, and pausing during a cut scene (and some are feature film length, it fells like) caused the video to go slide-show and the audio to get choppy, and there was no recovering the game. I basically had to go back to the previous save and play back to that point. PITA. Something similar happened in one other game (can't remember at the moment) and I just gave up suspend unless it was something simple / mindless like Yoku's Island Express.
