Newly created 2GB ubuntu droplet, just docker and docker-compose installed. Nothing strange. No running containers
root@mongotest-02:~/mongotest# time docker-compose --version
uptime
docker-compose version 1.29.2, build 5becea4c
real 3m59.484s
user 0m0.705s
sys 0m0.088s
root@mongotest-02:~/mongotest# uptime
21:37:58 up 3 days, 2:32, 4 users, load average: 0.00, 0.00, 0.00
During that time process state was “S”. This is digital ocean disks failing?

Hi there,
I’ve seen a similar problem and the solution that I’ve used in the past was to install haveged which solves the problem straight way:
sudo apt install -y haveged
Make sure that the service is running:
sudo systemctl status haveged.service
After that the docker-compose should be instant:
time docker-compose --version
Output:
docker-compose version 1.27.4, build 40524192
real 0m0.719s
user 0m0.618s
sys 0m0.092s
Hope that this helps! Regards, Bobby
