I have seen slow boots before, but it scaled with the amount of devices and memory reaching like ~5min (for >1TB mem init) and ~2.5min for 16 device pass-through.
Those times (the ones I mentioned) Nvidia has seen and sort of accepted. I discussed with Anish about how using HugePages help to reduce a lot of these times.
But 17min for just one device certainly feels wrong.
