Dropping the tag. Boot time can change randomly. Desktop start does
*not* depend on apt timer start, and timer now depends on network-online
in order to actually work. So yes, it actually does something now, so it
is of course slower.

OK,
I have now tested this new apt (1.4.1) against the old version (1.4).
My setup is using solely systemd (with no upstart nor cgmanager installed).
I have fast SSD's, so my normal booting time is about 4 seconds.
Now after upgrading to apt 1.4.1 the booting time to GDM increased with about 5

Status in apt package in Ubuntu:
We can't increase the delay for older distros, as it delays all daily
cron jobs there. We could increase to 2 hours, but I don't feel like
doing daily APT releases changing time outs, and 1.4.1 with the 1 hour
time out is out already.
I mean, I change it to 2 hours now, and tomorrow someone else
I mean, 1hr is better than the 30min window previously. But since you're
there poking around that bit of code, think we can increase that further
to 2hrs (0500 - 0700)? :D
Also, think we can get the window increase in unattended-upgrades for
older distros (Trusty etc.)?
Thanks for your time!

There's usually 3 main windows where the archive servers are under heavy
load. EU, UK/UTC, and US east. The UTC 0630 - 0700 window is usually the
biggest hit.
For the cloud argument, people run CI jobs spinning up new instances in
the cloud. Tools such as cloud-init and juju will normally run
Of course the load will be higher and peakish again, but the period is
twice as long as it was before (it's now 1 hour instead of 30 minutes),
so that should help.
I don't really get the cloud argument, though. APT will run updates on
boot if the instance was running more than 24 hours ago. And
The attachment "Call apt 5 minutes after system boot for short running
computer" seems to be a patch. If it isn't, please remove the "patch"
flag from the attachment, remove the "patch" tag, and if you are a
member of the ~ubuntu-reviewers, unsubscribe the team.

Also, I want to point out that when the main archive mirrors are under
heavy load, it doesn't just affect updates but booting up instances,
mostly public clouds, as well since various tools will perform updates
on boot.

The original request to have it randomised over a larger window is as
per LP bug #1554848. As Dimitri points out, many servers and clouds do
not set local timezones so the archive mirrors we run are hit around the
same time saturating the upstream links we have (with users then

In case of desktops/laptops they might not be on during that time - we

While we're at it, we could also push the times 2 hours more outside, to
4 and 20. So, something like this would probably be an improvement:

After=network.target

We can of course add After=network.target but this gives no real guarantee that
internet is available. For waiting with catch up runs during boot, that's
tracked in systemd's bug tracker at

OnCalendar=*-*-* 6,18:00

or tie down random and accuracy even more. We could do like 15 min or so
- the cron job used 30 min sleep maximum.
The boot argument with short runtime should be ignored. We can't help

I came to the conclusion that to manually control unattended upgrades it
currently the "easiest" (sarcasm tag on) way to only let the timer
update your package list and manually run unattended-upgrades via cron
at your desired time.
To do so:

Separating out u-u from the rest of the apt maintenance script could be

cache clean up all in one hit. You *can* delay your reboot time, but the
