I initially emphasized the boot speed from running the Ubuntu 16.04 VM on a SSD, but I believe the problem is mainly to do with the startup ordering of rsyslog and network support. I ended up working around the issue of rsyslog starting before network support was available by modifying the systemd unit with a conf fragment:

# /etc/systemd/system/rsyslog.service.d/10-wait-on-network.conf

[Unit]

After=network.target

It mostly works for us and appears to be what stock CentOS 7 is doing with their rsyslog package.

I went back and was unable to find an example where a distro-provided package is setting 'After=network.target' in the '[Unit]' section of a rsyslog.service or syslog.service unit file.

I'm sure I saw it somewhere, but checking these distros/versions I didn't spot it:

* Debian 8, 9
* RHEL 7
* CentOS 7
* Ubuntu 16.04

I'll keep looking.
