I found this bug report and ran the recommended check: $ journalctl -b | grep ureadahead | grep relative | wc -l 6474 As I have multi-boot logging enabled I did some percentage tests: $ time journalctl | grep ureadahead | grep relative | wc -l 14875 real 0m8.072s user 0m7.991s sys 0m3.153s $ journalctl | wc -l 907683 $ journalctl -b | wc -l 10504 For all boots ureadahead spam is 14875/907683=1.63% of all lines For current boot ureadahead spam is 6674/10504=63.53% of all lines I went back through all boot logs: $ for i in $(seq 1 145); do journalctl -b-$i | grep ureadahead | grep relative | wc -l ; done Booting 135 times ago also had ureadahead spam: $ journalctl -b-135 | grep ureadahead | grep relative | wc -l 3751 $ journalctl -b-135 | head -- Logs begin at Sat 2018-08-04 14:57:01 MDT, end at Sun 2018-10-07 11:31:03 MDT. -- Aug 06 10:35:39 alien systemd-journald[299]: Runtime journal (/run/log/journal/) is 8.0M, max 78.4M, 70.4M free.
