I I upgraded from Ubuntu 18.04 to 20.04, I kinda regret it now because the system became so much slower, boot takes 10 whole minutes and apps have more than 2 sec delay to start. has anyone had similar problems with this version ? and how to fix it ?

systemd-analyze
Startup finished in 4.507s (firmware) + 13.707s (loader) + 4.101s (kernel) + 4min 55.871s (userspace) = 5min 18.186s graphical.target reached after 4min 55.612s in userspace

I ran systemd-analyze blame :

  • Turn off Secure Boot in your BIOS and see if that helps. Report back. Start comments to me with @heynnema or I'll miss them.

  • @heynnema I restarted the system, secure boot was already disabled, I disabled legacy support on my way, didn't seem to help much, here is the results now systemd-analyze Startup finished in 2.956s (firmware) + 11.342s (loader) + 3.748s (kernel) + 2min 6.769s (userspace) = 2min 24.817s graphical.target reached after 2min 6.107s in userspace

  • What version VirtualBox do you have installed? Show me dpkg -l *irtual* | grep ii. Also show me sudo dmidecode -s bios-version and tell me the exact make/model of your computer.

  • There's a couple of different model designations for your PC. Can you please check for a more complete/exact model # for me?

BIOS

HP Pavilion Sleekbook 14-b000ee

You have BIOS version F.04.

There's a newer BIOS available, version F.1D, dated May 8, 2016. This newer BIOS may speed up your boots. It can be downloaded from here.

Note: Make sure that the web page matches your exact model #.

Note: Have good backups before updating the BIOS.
