I've seen shutdown delays on various installations going back to when systemd was very young. Often they seem to stem from start processes that reported failure at init time, so at shutdown time, instead of stop jobs, I see *start* jobs stalling. One of the easier ways to cause a shutdown delay is to try to CAD right after making a boot menu selection and realizing I chose the wrong one. That typically will hang with message "failed to store sound card state", and continually repeat for as long as CAD is held down. It doesn't happen on every installation, but it is common. Rather than trying to troubleshoot any of these hangs I invariably have more urgent things to do and reach for the reset button or power switch. -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive."
