I’ve been working on my boot time lately, but I realize I really don’t have a good handle on what it should be. I am hoping some of you will share yours so we can all get a feel for it. I’m including some HW specs here also because I’ve heard it can be relevant:

64GB RAM, 2 x 2 TB NVME:

Startup finished in 9.922s (firmware) + 1.151s (loader) + 3.506s (kernel) + 4.006s (userspace) = 18.586s graphical.target reached after 4.003s in userspace.

Edited to add boot time detail

    Interesting - I also have a discrete GPU and a USB interface. Do these things add much time?

      We’re talking seconds, but on top of ‘twenty seconds’ then it’s a large fraction of the total. The real problem is mounting disks in RAID for me, though - takes quite a while.
