BEFORE you update High Sierra on your Mac

If you have a Mac computer and have "High Sierra" as your operating system
I would suggest not doing the latest update. My iMac before the update booted up and was ready to go from being completely turned off in about 11 or 12 seconds and now after the update it takes a minute to two minutes to boot up. I Googled this problem and a lot of people are having the same problem. My suggestion would be to wait a month or two to give them time to get this fixed BEFORE DOING THE UPDATE!!!!!

Just for the heck of it... I timed my iMac, and it took 28 seconds to boot to a sign-in screen before the update... and 24 seconds after the update... :eek:

For me, post-update, I haven't had to reboot, but Lightroom shuts down "unexpectedly" quite frequently. Now I'm off to look for a solution to this issue...:confused:

I have a 2012 iMac running beta 4 of High Sierra fusion drive now has the fast boot up but the MacBook Pro non retina has the plain vanilla High Sierra .3. Hesitates at the fips that has several lines. I have my Macs set up in verbose mode as I hate not seeing what is happening; probably from my Linux-Unix days. So you are correct !
