Both on P1 and 2.

How much slower? Is your network slow to come up? Is it slower before you get to the Kodi splash (ie. kodi started) or is Kodi itself slower to start? When did it suddenly become slower?

Can you post a debug log (wiki) (showing the complete boot sequence), "dmesg | paste" and "journalctl --no-pager | paste".

It sits on the OpenELEC screen for about 40 seconds, shows the animation then the new blue and black screen for about a second and finally the UI. It's all the #8xx builds I have tested.

The last 7 series build boots quickly, #731. This boots on the Pi 2 in less than 20 seconds.

I will post the log soon as I can.

I did check the timings in dmesg and it doesn't reflect the pause.

You can see from the journal the kernel starts right up then pauses for a full minute before Kodi starts. The Pi 1 exhibits the exact same behavior on the same builds. I tried the kernel from a fast booting build and it made no difference, it is definitely system related.
