I've not thought about these issues you're having in quite some
time. But, while servicing a cat
at 3AM I started to wonder.
If you were to disable the dock-watch.service does the boot process
complete quickly?
I tried 'systemctl disable dock-watch' but for some reason it's being
re-enabled on boot, so that has no effect.
I physically disconnected the dock and it does make a big difference,
so there's no doubt where the problem lies.
If it does, might there be a way to start the service after the boot
process is completed?
If I can manage to actually disable dock-watch from starting
automatically then presumably I could run it from crontab using an
'@reboot' line.
