Vista is slow anyhow but 15 minutes are exttreme.
I managed the following times on a 2.2GHz laptop, with 2GB RAM, fully tuned,
(several services disabled), defraged, etc.
Startup: 1:30
Logon (and become responsive): 1:45
logoff: 0:45
Turn off: 0:40
sleep: 0:35
Resume: 0:10 * with random behaviour. it takes much longer some times.
The following times were recorded on a clean session.
I still believe that XP is much faster on a less powerful and tuned machine
