Can't look in details now, but from your mail please check for extra udev rules that may be slowing down and also remove useless stuff such as hostname as systemd does it without scripts. Also check your libc and kernel supports accept4 syscall On Saturday, November 26, 2011, Stefan Majewsky <<a href="mailto:stefan.majewsky@googlemail.com">stefan.majewsky@googlemail.com</a>> wrote: > Hi, > > my openSUSE 12.1 system boots in about 30 seconds, and I wanted to cut > that time down a bit, so I took a look at systemd-analyze's blame and > plot output. > > But I do not really know how to interpret the results which I see in > the plot [1].
