These are servers and I reboot them only when necessary. It's a pet peeve, but a big one.

In my experience time to boot everything else on server far exceeds any OS shenaningans.

I had servers that took up to 5 minutes from start/reboot to GRUB prompt. And they were not some 60 drive monsters but typical dual CPU 1U servers...
