Hi all
Since installing High Sierra, login time has increased greatly - from almost instant with Sierra to just over 11 seconds with High Sierra. Is this normal? I'm on a mid-2015 15" MacBook Pro.

Thanks very much for your reply. This has solved the delay following log in.
However, I had an awful time restarting after running first aid - my mac would not accept my correct password. After an hour of stress thinking that i had somehow been locked out, i discovered that when booting up High Sierra now wants your iCloud password first (without prompting that this is what is required), then takes you to a second login screen where it needs your apple id password. Why does this happen? Can I stop it from happening? It seems like iCloud is a nuisance, but I'd like to use find my mac. is there any way of using find my mac without iCloud?
Thanks
Thanks Sterling R. This worked for me too (I had exactly the same issue). However on the first reboot after setting the startup disk, my desktop appeared for 1 second then the screen went black and the machine locked-up. The good news is that after powering-down and restarting all is well.
So thanks again!
Tried both and didn't work for me. The Disk Utility showed no problem with HD after running the utility. Start-up in Settings shows Mac HD. Restarted but no change in slowness with logging out and logging in.
This made *zero difference in the slow bootup time for me.
