Cleanoldsepoldir.service takes 5 minutes of boot time

[Chorbulyak]

Hello,

So, the title says it all, and the question is obvious: What can I do to shorten the boot time?
Details:

1. The result of systemd-analyzed blame, only the top lines:

5min 35ms cleanoldsepoldir.service
  30.677s firewalld.service
  26.591s update-desktop-database.service
  25.379s postfix.service

I can understand the 30 second boot time as my computer is quite old and it’s behind a company’s firewall, but the 5 minute period on top of that is a bit much.

2. inxi -aS, just in case:

System:
  Host: ijcw118 Kernel: 7.2.2-1-default arch: x86_64 bits: 64 compiler: gcc
    v: 16.2.0 clocksource: tsc avail: hpet,acpi_pm
    parameters: BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/vmlinuz-7.2.2-1-default
    root=UUID=22e38b39-4ecb-4219-9087-29aa2e749f6c splash=silent
    resume=/dev/disk/by-uuid/8c408b76-bb30-49e0-86d0-989b9d3fb954 quiet
    security=apparmor mitigations=auto
  Desktop: KDE Plasma v: 6.7.4 tk: Qt v: N/A info: frameworks v: 6.29.0
    wm: kwin_x11 tools: avail: xscreensaver vt: 2 dm: SDDM Distro: openSUSE
    Tumbleweed 20260901

I did an upgrade this morning (zypper dup), and have rebooted the computer a couple of times since.

3. Service Manager is showing this:
   
   while its log is listing this for cleanoldsepoldir
   
   
   
   and for snapper
   
   

I didn’t make any changes to how or when these two services are run, so everything is by default (as far as I know).

So, why are these two misbehaving and what can/should I do?

Thank you.
