Package: systemd Version: 241-2 Severity: important
Dear Maintainer, on this system, an initial ssh connection needs 11 seconds to complete (as root or any other user). Further connections are fast. This is not a slow boot problem because it occurs even when the machine has been booted for days. It comes from a slow start of the user's session as can be seen in this log: Mar 20 15:06:27 hostname sshd[172771]: Accepted publickey for root from 193.55.51.153 port 53702 ssh2: RSA SHA256:wmFQ70BsRjT4uCWua2ddnbfFv7kiMecLHVNtZMw0KMk Mar 20 15:06:27 hostname sshd[172771]: pam_unix(sshd:session): session opened for user root by (uid=0) Mar 20 15:06:27 hostname systemd-logind[743]: New session 3373 of user root.
