** Description changed:
+ [Impact]
+
+ * Due to code inefficiences, pollinate takes a significant amount of
+ time during firstboot.
+
+ * Customers expect minimal boot-times, particularly wrt. pollinate which
+ is described as having an impact in seconds.
+
+ [Test Case]
+
+ * Boot an Amazon instance, e.g., and examine the systemd-analyze output
+ with and without the fix.
+
+ * Without the fix, pollinate will account for 15-60s of time. With the
+ fix, that drops to ~6s.
+
+ [Regression Potential]
+
+ * While a large number of changes to pollinate:
+
+ changelog | 35 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++-
+ pollinate | 54 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++--------------------
+ pollinate.default | 2 +-
+ 3 files changed, 67 insertions(+), 24 deletions(-)
+
+ the releases changes have been well-tested manually in yakkety and
+ represent the next logical release for pollinate relative to what has
+ already been SRU'd (precise upload currently is in -proposed)..
+
+ * The highest likelihood of regression stems from possible behaviour
+ dependencies on the old code, but that seems a) unlikely to be the case
+ and b) fixable during the -proposed testing, if encountered.
+

+
backport to xenial fixes in pollinate that address slow run times (see
http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~pollinate/pollinate/trunk/revision/325).
To see the issue launch an AMI, and look at systemd-analyze blame.
pollinate was taking anywhere from 12-50 seconds to run during first
boot.
