I have a few frontends on TVs and use automount on some NFS sources.
However, I can't seem find a way to start the nfs client services on
startup. Wiki for NFS and other documentation says that systemd does
this automatically (and it does) but I'm trying to eliminate a delay.
The frontend start up and when you go to the screen that scans the
folder, it takes 5-10 seconds for systemd to start these services and
mount the NFS locations.
On openrc this is simple and it takes less than a second at that screen.
It is not waiting for a network, as on startup the interface connects to
a database and this part is working fine (it would be blank if it
started with no network.)

Does 'systemd-analyze blame' show which service component causes the delay(s)?
If the same service dependency occurs on both systems then it ought to take
the same time to automount an exported directory. This points to some systemd
specific service dependency/hierarchy causing the delay - as long as all
other configuration variables remain the same.
I just had a thought, and I don't know why I didn't think of it before.
I just looked at /etc/init.d/nfsclient and enabled the related services
in systemd.
Rebooted, now it works as expected.
