RHEL6 > delay in executing chkconfig --level 2345 $SVC off

Solution Verified - Updated -

Issue

  • In the process of exploring this situation I have discovered that a command such as chkconfig --level 2345 $SVC off has become quite slow. 
  • On RHEL-5, it takes .00x to .042 seconds; on RHEL-6 it takes about 1.7 seconds.  Please test this with "time chkconfig --level 2345 $SVC off" for some service on your systems, and see if you agree.
