Sleep is often problematic, I haven't really tried on the PBP. I try to not close the lid, I grab the left side and stand it up on the floor to put it down. With the screen and keyboard being at right angles it stands up quite nicely on its side.
I haven't bothered to play with it because getting my SSD to boot is more important, but I wonder if a dedicated sleep partition would work better than a file. 4 GB isn't that much space to give up, even on an SD. Using a swap file doesn't seem like it would work very well if something happens to be swapped out when you start to go into sleep. Swap and sleep will run into each other and I don't think either checks for the other. I set up a 10 GB swap partition on my SSD that seems to work fine.
