[Bug 1706990] [NEW] With samba installed on Kubuntu 17.04, nmbd.service causes a 10 second boot time regression

 

Public bug reported:

I'm running Kubuntu 17.04. After installing Samba rsion 2:4.5.8+dfsg-
0ubuntu0.17.04.4), my boot time has regressed from about 12 seconds to
23 seconds. `systemd-blame` shows that the culprit is the nmbd service:

$ systemd-analyze blame | head -n 5
         10.017s nmbd.service
          8.008s apt-daily.service
          3.010s iio-sensor-proxy.service
           561ms dev-nvme0n1p2.device
           554ms NetworkManager-wait-online.service


The nmbd systemd logs show that the 10 seconds is spent looking for a
non-child nmb process:

$ systemctl status nmbd.service | tail -n 3
Jul 26 19:49:24 Spectre systemd[1]: Starting Samba NMB Daemon...
Jul 26 19:49:24 Spectre systemd[1]: nmbd.service: Supervising process 1091 which is not our child. We'll most likely not notice when it exits.
Jul 26 19:49:34 Spectre systemd[1]: Started Samba NMB Daemon.


If I uninstall samba, the problem disappears.
