Ian, Yes that is correct I only see this slowdown or timeout on this one upgraded installation that doesn't have the snapd snap.
However, I rebooted immediately prior to replying here and no timeout. I reboot most days due to kernel updates or needing to boot into another Ubuntu installation but the only dates on which I have seen the timeout since my comment #3 have been April 23, 28 and 29 - nothing since then.
