Does this behavior persist?  In other words, does it take 90 seconds
everytime you reboot to the same image (without another image-update or
adding any packages), or you have only observed the long delay once?  I
have seen this behavior when rebooting for the first time because
"bootadm" was run to check whether the boot archive needs to be
updated, and did the update when deemed necessary.  Since this check
and archives update happen after X has shut down and graphics
transitioned back to text mode without clearing the screen, one would
be staring at the screeen content (SunOS bla bla) for the whole
duration.
