My macbook takes ages to boot to login.
My MacBook Air M1 takes 12 seconds from cold boot (including firmware) to the password prompt. This is the prompt that unlocks FDE. After that, it shows my desktop in 10 seconds. So, 22 second in total.
I don't really care, because I reboot my Macs maybe once every few weeks.
(My Linux workstations usually take more than 12 seconds, perhaps even more than 22 seconds in EFI firmware.)
- checkyoursudo 4y agoYeah, I don't reboot the macbook more than once every many weeks so it's not a big deal or anything. On the other hand, my super speedy linux doesn't quite know how to hibernate right, while the macbook does and wakes up again like a champ--like instantly. You win some and lose some.
