I have something that may be addressed before everybody gets a parallel
init. :)

Normal startup:
  [root at pim kay]# time /usr/sbin/hald --retain-privileges --verbose=yes
  20:45:27.624 [I] hald.c:498: hal 0.5.0
  20:45:27.628 [I] hald.c:500: Will daemonize
  20:45:27.628 [I] hald.c:510: Becoming a daemon

  real    0m3.483s
  user    0m0.003s
  sys     0m0.001s

Startup with USB printer connected:
  [root at pim kay]# time /usr/sbin/hald --retain-privileges --verbose=yes
  20:46:09.451 [I] hald.c:498: hal 0.5.0
  20:46:09.455 [I] hald.c:500: Will daemonize
  20:46:09.455 [I] hald.c:510: Becoming a daemon

  real    0m10.917s
  user    0m0.005s
  sys     0m0.001s

Printer probing (takes ~8 seconds):
  20:47:31.882 [I] device_info.c:1370: *** Matched file /usr/share/hal/fdi/policy/10osvendor/10-hal_lpadmin.fdi
  20:47:31.888 [I] util.c:1061: Add callouts for udi=/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/usb_device_4f9_1a_noserial_if0_printer_noserial
  20:47:39.412 [I] util.c:495: child exited for pid 3482

Thanks,
Kay
