hmm, systemd-journal-flush.service is back. journalctl --disk-usage?

[amartyasinha918@amartya-hp ~]$ journalctl --disk-usage
Archived and active journals take up 48.0M in the file system.

That’s weird,

ls -lah /var/log/

?

You can try rebooting and checking if it will be still there. Other than that, you can go through the things listed in systemd-analyze blame and checking if it’s something abnormal or searching for ways to reduce time spend on them. You should be able to shave at least 5 seconds off of your boot time, but obviously buying an SSD will help a lot more (on my PC with HDD, graphical target reached after: 18 sec, on my laptop with an SSD: 2.2 sec). Hope I helped somewhat :wink:

Thanks for you help. I just masked snapd and rebooted. I think that it is now fine for HDD.

[amartyasinha918@amartya-hp ~]$ systemd-analyze
