Slow Boot Zorin5

Sins I installed Zorin5 on my Toshiba Qosmio x505 I noticed that the boot is very slow compared to my previous laptop (Hp HDX 18.4 running Zorin4).
My Toshiba is much faster so I tough it will be very fast (boot time) with the latest Zorin, that is not the case.
Is there a difference in boot speed between Zorin4 and Zorin5 ??
Have anyone else have the same thing ??

Once it's up and running, then it's fast :)

Cheers

I've had the same issue. i haven't tried zorinOS4 but ZorinOS5 is the slowest distro i've ever used(compared to linux mint, ubuntu10~11.04). the desktop takes a while to show up and then they ask me to delete menu applets sometimes.
