I've already said, a few times now, what I'd prefer as the solution. I
also havn't heard any reason why it's not a reasonable solution.
Please, try reducing the timeouts such that it's sleeping (at most) 2s
per NSS call (assuming a failure to connect to the servers) and see how
that affects booting. I don't expect that it would be too bad but I'm
not sure which is why I'd like to have it tested. CosmicRay on IRC was
already doing some of this testing for me so you might try checking with
him on what he discovered. I'm out of town and when I've been on he
hasn't been around or I would have already.
Thanks,
Stephen
