Bug Description
'byobu true' on openstack instance takes 7 seconds or more.
This is really because of bug 851159.
However, anything that byobu does that is blocking start up time (as opposed to status-
$ grep -r 169.254.169.254 /usr/lib/byobu/ -l
/usr/lib/
/usr/lib/
/usr/lib/
/usr/lib/
$ time wget -q -O - http://
server-
real 0m1.422s
user 0m0.000s
sys 0m0.000s
Note, that it is not at all far-fetched that 169.254.169.254 could be firewalled off completely in a security consious environment. That would result in an indefinite hang on byobu startup.

I'm not just making the firewall comment up, one vm system I have access to has such firewalls in place.
