Number 2 has been discusaws here, yes, it seems like BB is taking a longer time to load and get started.

I've noticed that it takes the longest time here the first startup after a reboot. After that, when restarting BB in the same boot session it takes less time.

But you have to be careful and remember not to just start in clicking things when you see the first BB screen. Wait for it to flash to the second one and things settle down.
