Hello,
I just read this thread where people post their boot times and I realize that mine is quite poor.

It takes around 1min10 sec from the moment I push the power on button till I get a desktop.

I have a UMBP 2.53Ghz + 4GB RAM + 512 VRAM + 7200 rpm disk. I don't have any "Open at login Apps"

You can see here the system.log of a boot..

Here are some ideas:

1- In the log, I see a lot of messages from Vmware, probably the virtual interfaces coming up. Is it somehow possible to switch off/remove the virtual interfaces in vmware fusion ? I only use the "bridged one" and I have no use of the "NAT" and "host only" interface.

2- There are several messages
Failed to contact host ap.lan: RPC: Port mapper failure - RPC: Timed out
ap.lan is the hostname of my router where i have a samba mounted disk. Any idea why I get this message ?

Can you help me with this ?

Thanks,

For (3), try deleting /Library/InputManagers/MultiClutchInputManager.bundle . There already exists a copy of that bundle under /Library/InputManagers/MultiClutchInputManager, so the bundle in the error message is not necessary.
