I always get a blue screen before the log in and haven't had any problems!
 
As the 2 users above have said, It's normal to get a blue-screen before login. I have had this since the first day I bought my mac. As for the boot-speed, I don't really see a problem, 2 seconds? I'm sorry, but If you can't wait 2 seconds, then I don't know what to do. As far as the time exceeding in the previous weeks, Maybe a defrag would help, basically all defragging does is places and organise critical files on your system to make the drive quicker & more efficient. A Couple of programs can accomplish this;

http://www.coriolis-systems.com/iDefrag.php - This program works great, however, is going to cost you £30 - $46. However, a trial version can be installed, which only, scans your system, not defrag it. If you do go ahead and purchase this application, you should do it overnight, if this is your first time, this process can be time consuming.

Hope this helped, Merry Christmas & a Happy new-year. :)
