After my upgrade to El Capitan, booting back to the Mac side after Win 7 is slow or fails.

Normally, the progress bar under the Apple makes it to about 1/4 quickly and then the other progress bar in the bottom left zips through and I'm at my login screen in less than 30 seconds.

After a BootCamp (Win 7) boot, booting back to Mac side is painful. The first progress bar moves slowly to about the 2/3 point and then crawls to about 3/4 point. Often the Mac just turns off here. Boot after a uncommanded shutdown proceeds normally. If it does make it through the 3/4 point first try, it can take 5 minutes to get to login.

Don't know if this is related but I do my weekly backup after my little stuff in Win 7. SuperDuper copies over a GB of files. All the stuff I work on is much less than that.

I boot Windows for a little blood pressure app. Quick download, make a pdf and back to the Mac. Nothing else.
