Slow boot time on RetroStone 2 Pro #73

I have a quite fresh RetrOrangePi_v4.3_Armbian_Retrostone2_PRO_bionic_dev_5.3.13_desktop_v3 install without only few games and I just clockwatched the boot time:

51 seconds until RetrOrangePi 4.3 terminal motd 56 seconds until EmulationStation splash screen 1:06 minutes until ready to use.

Feels quite long time to wait every time when starting device. I noticed there's some python scripts in startup for example for music that I have disabled, does these slow it down? What other factors we have? Could this be improved?

The boot time from MY Retrostone 2 Pro (with same Image, 64GB SD Card, and 1900 Roms) until ready to use is approximately 40-45 seconds! Unfortunately I cannot give you any tips on this, as I am very little familiar with it myself!

But maybe I could still help you a little with my boot time.
