+
+                <para><command>systemd-analyze</command> may be used
+                to determine system boot-up performance of the current
+                boot.</para>
+
+                <para><command>systemd-analyze time</command>
+                prints the time spent in the kernel before
+                userspace has been reached, the time spent in the
+                initial RAM disk (initrd) before normal system
+                userspace has been reached and the time normal system
+                userspace took to initialize. Note that these
+                measurements simply measure the time passed up to the
+                point where all system services have been spawned, but
+                not necessarily until they fully finished
+                initialization or the disk is idle.</para>
+
+                <para><command>systemd-analyze blame</command> prints
+                a list of all running units, ordered by the time they
+                took to initialize. This information may be used to
+                optimize boot-up times. Note that the output might be
+                misleading as the initialization of one service might
+                be slow simply because it waits for the initialization
+                of another service to complete.</para>
+
+                <para><command>systemd-analyze plot</command> prints
+                an SVG graphic detailing which system services have
+                been started at what time, highlighting the time they
+                spent on initialization.</para>
