.....it boots slow to the Apple logo (15 seconds). Once it gets to the Apple logo, it makes it to the login screen in another 10 seconds, for a total of 25 seconds. I have the NVMe installed internally using an adapter. If I use the Apple Startup Manager, the NVMe shows up as an external drive (weird) right away, then boots fast after that - for a total of 15 seconds. The NVMe does show up in the NVMe device tree and it also shows up as "bootable:yes" in disk utility. I have tried NVRAM reset multiple times, and the "bless" hokey-pokey dance multiple times. Still, a slow boot and it shows up as an external drive in the Apple Startup Manager but not in Disk Utility.
Can somebody give me some more clues?
Here is some more information below:
