Bug Description
This makes me worry there's something gone wrong on every login.
It's only this slow on a cold boot. It's somewhat faster on a second login.
It'd be nice for there to be something like:
* Splash screen
* Progress bar
* User's wallpaper (blurred?)
during this time.
Maybe it's faster on bare metal, but I'm waiting a while in a Qemu VM.
== Note ==
The experience might differ depending on whether you use unity-greeter (X11-based, default in 17.04) or unity8-greeter (not installed by default yet), which is better suited for this.

"several seconds" isn't 25 seconds is it? A fix for that long login delay landed in the past few days.
