I installed 10.3.2 (and the battery update) and the startup time increased dramatically. 2 minutes, 45 seconds from hitting the power button until the beachball stops spinning. Quite nasty. (iBook 700mhz) I've repaired permissions. No improvement.

Many others are beginning to report the same thing:

Does anyone have any guesses why? What could they have done to nearly double the boot time on one minor update? Any guesses? Does Apple even know?
