Very slow shutdown

After updating Asahi (Fedora 41) the shutdown prosess is very slow.

Macbook pro M1

I had the same issue until a few days ago on the M2, so it may have been resolved with recent updates.

Mine was specifically due to an unmount taking a while, possibly autofs, don’t recall exactly.

When the shutdown screen is visible press ESC to see the systemd items/services being stopped, you’ll be able to see the one causing the shutdown to take a while as it will have a time indicating how long its been waiting to stop a service and his long its going to wait as a maximum, plus the screen will not look like the matrix as the scroll will likely be mostly static.

The problem was solved with system updates. But it was very likely due to unmounting of my external drives that is set up in fstab.
