I'm glad I'm not the only one who thought that sounded like voodoo
economics.

I think our problems are much more localized than that.  In my personal
environment, the single biggest boot-time problem is that netatalk takes
friggin forever (~ 1 min) to sync with an existing Appletalk seed router.
But I don't reboot my Fedora machines often enough to make it worth my
time to track it down ...
