Grabbed a Dell G7 7588 (GTX1060), I can see the following behaviour
(without the proprietary NVIDIA driver):

* 4.15.47
  - Startup finished in 9.204s (firmware) + 12.063s (loader) + 18.618s (kernel) 
+ 35.425s (userspace) = 1min 15.312s
  - graphical.target reached after 35.321s in userspace
* 4.15.46
  - Startup finished in 9.960s (firmware) + 26.601s (loader) + 5.682s (kernel) 
+ 21.687s (userspace) = 1min 3.932s
  - graphical.target reached after 21.675s in userspace
* 4.15.45
  - Startup finished in 10.107s (firmware) + 10.019s (loader) + 3.652s (kernel) 
+ 20.518s (userspace) = 44.298s
  - graphical.target reached after 20.501s in userspace

Please ignore the time cost in "loader", it the grub menu that I used to
switch between different kernels.

So if we assume the loader costs 10 second, the start time will be:
* 4.15.47 - 73s
* 4.15.46 - 47s
* 4.15.45 - 44s

After installing the proprietary video driver (nvidia-driver-390), the boot 
time looks ok to me:
* 4.15.47
  - Startup finished in 13.981s (firmware) + 13.375s (loader) + 3.796s (kernel) 
+ 15.451s (userspace) = 46.604s
  - graphical.target reached after 15.424s in userspace
* 4.15.46
  - Startup finished in 8.506s (firmware) + 17.742s (loader) + 8.274s (kernel) 
+ 11.884s (userspace) = 46.407s
  - graphical.target reached after 11.879s in userspace
* 4.15.45
  - Startup finished in 8.433s (firmware) + 7.836s (loader) + 2.664s (kernel) + 
13.392s (userspace) = 32.327s
  - graphical.target reached after 13.149s in userspace

I guess when booting without the proprietary driver, it's affected by
the nouveau timeout issue (bug 1822987)

Clement Yuan, can you install the proprietary driver and give it a try?
