Perhaps. On a Qube3 Pro shutting down network services seems to be the offensive process. I have had users log off hoping to terminate smb shares without any change in reboot times. This machine also smbmounts a pc for backups. After the last reboot and some archive searching that indictated long reboot times when NFS mounts are involved, I have decided to umount the pc before reboot.
You might be on to something. Checking my kernel logs, I'm seeing a long gap between when the kernel logging stops, and when it activates again. Once activated, things seem to start up pretty quickly, so it seems to be perhaps somehow involved in the shutdown process ... I'm still investigating, but thanks for the lead!
