+ <title>Description</title>
+
+ <para><command>systemd-analyze</command> may be used
+ to determine system boot-up performance of the current
+ boot.</para>
+
+ <para><command>systemd-analyze time</command>
+ prints the time spent in the kernel before
+ userspace has been reached, the time spent in the
+ initial RAM disk (initrd) before normal system
+ userspace has been reached and the time normal system
+ userspace took to initialize. Note that these
+ measurements simply measure the time passed up to the
+ point where all system services have been spawned, but
+ not necessarily until they fully finished
+ initialization or the disk is idle.</para>
+
+ <para><command>systemd-analyze blame</command> prints
+ a list of all running units, ordered by the time they
+ took to initialize. This information may be used to
+ optimize boot-up times. Note that the output might be
+ misleading as the initialization of one service might
+ be slow simply because it waits for the initialization
+ of another service to complete.</para>
+
+ <para><command>systemd-analyze plot</command> prints
+ an SVG graphic detailing which system services have
+ been started at what time, highlighting the time they
+ spent on initialization.</para>
+
+ <para>If no command is passed <command>systemd-analyze
+ time</command> is implied.</para>
