Add delay to some startup applications
 
I want to speed up my startup process by putting a 20 second delay for these.

If I do so, I can shave off over a minute.

However, none are listed in Startup Applications Preference.


Code:
  21.290s udev-configure-printer@-devices-pci0000:00-0000:00:13.2-usb2-2\x2d5.service
        18.094s mysql.service
        16.449s apt-daily.service
        15.094s apache2.service
        14.245s udev-configure-printer@-devices-pci0000:00-0000:00:13.2-usb2-2\x2d4.service

Because they are processes or daemons, not desktop application, my guess is that their startup is managed by your init system.

I don't know, though, whether Ubuntu has completed the switch from upstart to SystemD.

yes those are systemd services. Ubuntu went systemd in 15.04 I think.

I installed boot up manager and disabled two systemd services. mysql.service and apache2.service

Bootup time is about 30 seconds faster.

I would like to disable these and restart them after reboot.
I think I need to use systemctl start the services.

But I can not understand how I need to use it for my case.
