Per the other response, this isn't delaying the cd, it's completing the cd and then delaying the loading of ancillary information to display asynchronously. More specifically put, this is a solution to a problem you don't have. Some people want their prompt to display more ancillary information about their environment. Those people want a quick, responsive prompt as much as you, and one of the strategies for having both processing this extra display info and having a fast prompt is async.
