Comment 0 for bug 1615751

I launched 2 different yakkety systems on azure instance types:
  Basic_A0
  Standard_D1_v2
More information what those things are at :
  https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/pricing/details/virtual-machines/linux/

systemd-analize says:

## Basic A0
smoser@sm-y-d1v2-1:~$ systemd-analyze
Startup finished in 5min 8.172s (kernel) + 42.670s (userspace) = 5min 50.842s

## Standard D1 v2
$ systemd-analyze
Startup finished in 5min 13.347s (kernel) + 1min 31.532s (userspace) = 6min 44.879s

Systemd thinks that more than 5 minutes passed between the kernel being loaded and /sbin/init being run. I'm pretty sure this isn't just a bad clock, as the system actually is not reachable for something like 6 minutes after boot, so it seems sane. Additionally, I have some scripts that compare launch time and code ran inside the vm via cloud-init and they agree.

For example:
  starting at Mon, 22 Aug 2016 15:37:43 +0000
  uptime: 349.77 seconds
  you launched me at: Mon, 22 Aug 2016 15:30:11 +0000
  it is now : Mon, 22 Aug 2016 15:37:43 +0000
  kernel booted : Mon, 22 Aug 2016 15:31:54 +0000
  launch to kernel boot: 103 seconds
  launch to user-data : 452 seconds
