Title:
  pollinate can take a long time

Status in pollinate package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in pollinate source package in Precise:
  In Progress
Status in pollinate source package in Trusty:
  In Progress
Status in pollinate source package in Xenial:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  [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.
