I upgraded to OS7.1 .284 and notice my boot times to the home screen range from 6-7 minutes. That is way longer than when I was on the stock OS7 which use to be around 2 min or so.
What are your boot times? Do you get that hang right under the E on the load screen?

I use to get that booting pause at that point and have seen some others report they've had that too. For me I assume it was a dodgy app. I deleted some apps I didn't need or really use and it went.
I have my memory cleaning enabled and I don't have a long boot time. It boots in about 70-90 seconds. How would memory cleaning being disabled effect boot time? I can't disable mine, it is grayed out and has the small lock icon next to it.

That setting has always had an impact on boot times. Odd yours isn't.
It's gray because you have an IT policy. Some of the OS releases had it, even though those installing it aren't on BES.

Yeah, that's why I asking. Odd indeed. As for the IT policy, I upgraded to 7.1.0.402 back when it first leaked, but forgot to remove it when I downgraded. So that is where I picked it up. Just too lazy to get rid of it. I wonder if the amount of apps you have can affect the boot time. I notice after re-installing all my apps after a wipe, boot time takes a little bit longer the first reboot or two.
Yeah noticed that too but didn't know about memory cleaning and how it affects boot time, also does having loads of songs and pics affect boot time like it does on a pc.

Mine takes at least 5 mins,sometimes longer. It used to be much faster - a couple of minutes I think when I first got it and now I come to think of it the longer boot time may have started after the last OS update (I am on 7.1.0). I've barely any apps on it. It hangs for quite a while doing its thing. Needless to say I dread having to re-boot it and when I do I go off and do something else.

There's certainly a difference as you load it up with apps, but what's another 30-60secs?

The SD and internal storage shouldn't affect boot time any. It will have a minor impact on initial use after boot, while the indexing happens. More stuff, more boot lag.
I can't confirm, but imagine the larger your databases are, ie address book, memos etc, the longer the boot.
I think I enabled memory cleaning after reading a thread on CB about recovering leaked memory. My memory leak is so bad after upgrading that I was looking for easy fixes. Regardless, memory cleaning didn't help that much and with the extra time added to boot time, it just makes more sense to do a reboot every so often.
I really hope BB10 doesn't require a lot of reboots because based on my PB, you do occasionally have to reboot and after the 2.0 update, it takes even longer!
