Title:
  11.10 boots slower than Windows

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I have done a keyword search and cannot find that anyone else has mentioned 
this, so I will be the one who raises this yellow flag, in the spirit of bug 
report #1:
    One of the advocacy points I use when trying to sell people on using Ubuntu 
is the boot speed.  I can (could before this week) shut down Ubuntu, rather 
than "sleep" it like I do Windows, because it boots so fast -- or it used to.
    Since upgrading to 11.10 Beta 1, boot time has become very slow.  My 
stopwatch says 148.99 seconds to get a login prompt from the grub menu.  This 
compared to 36.6 seconds for the Windows Vista on the other partition. When I 
select a previous version of Linux, the boot time is still equally slow, so my 
original guess that the kernel change made the difference is probably 
incorrect.  I don't know where the problem is, but something has gone very sour 
in the boot up process for my favorite O.S.
    Perhaps this will be a goal for next release, but something should be done 
about it.
