Hi NCMacGuy,
It is better to remove sleepwatcher from the system preferences exclusion. Instead do one of the following:
1. Find sleepwatcher in finder and the right-click open and then press allow at the warning, or
2. in terminal write: "sudo xattr -d com.apple.quarantine /usr/local/sbin/sleepwatcher"
Then sleepwatcher will be authorized to run. I will edit the original post and the above for future reference...
Regarding the Boot time delay, I have no side effect from sleepwatcher, and you shouldn't also.... Except if it is a one time issue with the security check...
@macleap
I used your above #2 terminal write entry. On a cold boot my boot times are now normal. All seems well.
Thanks again.
