If the majority of the delay is caused by logout rather than the actual shutdown (try logging out then shutting down to find out) then there are two bugs that I know of that you might be hitting. If you are using Tomboy then you are probably hitting [1] Tomboy causing delay on logout or shutdown. The workaround is to quit Tomboy before logging out by clicking on its icon in the top panel and selecting Quit. Just closing the tomboy windows leaves it running in the background. If you are using Unity-2d then there is [2] Long delay on session logout. If you are using neither of these then it must be something else. It would be useful if you could try and determine what it is that is triggering the delay. Have a look in syslog to see if there is anything. Try logging in and immediately logging out without starting any apps (assuming the delay is the logout). If the delay is during shutdown rather than logout do you have any network shares? If so if you unmount those first or temporarily remove them from fstab (and reboot obviously) does it help?
