[systemd-devel] [RFH] How to analyze long load time of `systemd-timesyncd`?

Dear systemd folks,
I am trying to figure out why `systemd-timesyncd` takes quite some
time, that means over 100 ms, to start up on several systems [1]. This
is also reproducible with systemd 232 from Debian Sid/unstable.
After adding `log_info()` statements to the source code, as told in
#systemd at irc.freenode.net, it looks like the time is spend before the
`main()` is called. Is the flow documented somewhere? Who prints
`Starting Network Time Synchronization...`, and then what happens?
It’d be awesome if you could help me, how to further debug this issue.
```
$ journalctl -u systemd-timesyncd -o short-monotonic -b
