I have a new TW installation with a 940GB encrypted root partition (including /boot, excluding /boot/efi). When starting the machine, grub asks in text mode for the passphrase. After entering the passphrase, it takes about 20s until the graphical boot screen appears.
I feel this is much too long....
Has anyone a similar experience? Perhaps around 10 seconds, running in a KVM virtual machine. Around 1 second on a real machine.
However, I am using "ext4". It is probably slower with "btrfs". I don't have "btrfs" and encryption on the same machine, but "grub" loading a menu from "btrfs" is noticeably slower than loading its menu from "ext4".
Yes. I have encrypted BTRFS and it is very slow (to put it in polite terms). i assumed it was all BTRFS' fault, because i am new to BTRFS. I'm coming from Arch Linux and had been using systemd-boot for a while, and didn't consider it being due to Grub and disk encryption. Now, i'm guessing it's a little of both. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
