and plymouth takes ~8 mins to appear on screen
the maybe-ubiquity (try or install) screen took >10 mins
I did mention groovy in comment #17, but I don't believe I filed bugs, just noted on iso.qa.ubuntu.com QA-test reports.
I didn't use stop-watch, but looked at room clock in room (digital without seconds so my times are approx only).. My ISO may also not have been released groovy; just last I zsync'd prior to release for QA.
