Package: openvas-server
Version: 2.0.3-3
Severity: important

openvasd should not be launched with the '-q' option in 
/etc/init.d/openvas-server;
It takes about 5-minutes to load the 17,000 plugins, meanwhile the user gets no
feedback as to what is happening.

But the main problem I'm seeing is that when I try to connect to the server 
(running on localhost) it simply hangs after asking me to verify the 
certificate.
While I'm waiting, iotop shows that openvasd is reading from the disk like 
crazy.

I have let things run for about 10 minutes, but it never moves beyond 
"initiating
connection".
