Does the init script really need to sleep here? If so, could you please put
in a comment explaining why the sleep needs to happen? If not, could you
please remove the sleep?
Could you please describe your problem? Do you want to shorten the
boot process? H.
Boot and shutdown, yes. As a first pass, I grepped for sleep in my init
scripts, and found a few culprits, including alsa-utils.
If alsa-utils genuinely needs to sleep here in order to work around some kind
of problem, then ideally the sleep should have a comment explaining the
problem it solves. This way, when the problem no longer exists, the sleep can
go away too.
