Public bug reported: 'byobu true' on openstack instance takes 7 seconds or more. This is really because of bug 851159.
However, anything that byobu does that is blocking start up time (as opposed to status-refresh/update time) that could potentially take a long time should really be backgrounded. $ grep -r 169.254.169.254 /usr/lib/byobu/ -l /usr/lib/byobu/hostname /usr/lib/byobu/include/shutil /usr/lib/byobu/ip_address /usr/lib/byobu/ec2_cost $ time wget -q -O - http://169.254.169.254/latest/meta-data/public-hostname server-3002.novalocal real 0m1.422s user 0m0.000s sys 0m0.000s Note, that it is not at all far-fetched that 169.254.169.254 could be firewalled off completely in a security consious environment. That would result in an indefinite hang on byobu startup.
