  • Print a tree of the time-critical chain of units:
    systemd-analyze critical-chain
  • Create an SVG file showing when each system service started, highlighting the time that they spent on initialization:
    systemd-analyze plot > {{path/to/file.svg}}
  • Plot a dependency graph and convert it to an SVG file:
    systemd-analyze dot | dot -T{{svg}} > {{path/to/file.svg}}
