I agree with the object count. Out older 7.6.04 servers with custom apps and HD takes 30 seconds to start. Our 8.1. ITSM servers take 2.5 minutes to start. Roughly guessing, there are probably about 4x the number of objects in our ITSM systems. Also our User count in ITSM vs. old system is about 15:1. Not sure about the Group count but I am figuring it is considerably higher in ITSM as well.
You can log what is happening regarding the arsystem process at start up time by adding -t (working from memory here) to the line that starts the arserver process in armonitor.cfg.
