So you are saying that systemd reports that it is starting your script
40 seconds before your script is actually started?

If so, this would suggest that something hangs in the time systemd forks
off your stop script, but before exec() is actually called for
it. This could be an NSS look-up done due to User= or Group=, or a PAM
intraction done via PAM= or so.

How precisely does your full service file look like?
