Hi Ralf, 

yes, you are right. We do not often starting our computers, and in my special 
case, where I have to enter the passwords for lock up the encrypted partitions 
manually, booting speed is far from importance.

However, the shutdown sequence is much, much faster than before, which is 
sometimes important for me, when I am doing special things.

Besides, 7 to 9 seconds, equals about 23 percent is not much, but I think it 
might be more. Estimated 50 - 60 percent faster, but I also should measure it 
by a stopwatch. 

Still be impressed. :)

best regards

Hans
