Windows (fast boot off, hibernation off, 5400 RPM HDD, near clean installation with very few programs (none of them open on startup)) takes:
- 46 seconds to boot (the time the Windows logo is visible)
- 7 seconds on a black screen
- 52 seconds on Please wait screen
- 4 seconds to the login screen
- 9 seconds to the desktop
- 46 seconds for the desktop to finish loading and be barely usable
- 14 seconds for the Start menu to appear (!!!, Windows 7 took less than half second)
- 20 seconds for other tasks to finish
- Probably longer for all startup tasks to have finished their course (and I don't have too many, I mean the only task I have is Boot Camp (which is know for taking long))
....for a total of around 3 minutes and 30 seconds.
macOS takes:
- 94 seconds to boot (the time the Apple logo is visible)
- 20 seconds to the desktop
....for a total of 1 minute and 54 seconds.
Linux (GNOME) takes:
- 20 seconds to boot
- 35 seconds to the login screen
- 40 seconds to the desktop
....for a total of 1 minute and 35 seconds
Linux (KDE) takes the same amount of time...
