I am also struggling with this and the HIPL code (on F20).  If you just 
start the services, it takes about 5 min to complete.  If you just run 
the programs and tell them to drop into the background it is a handful 
of seconds.  Strip out comments from the script and it starts right up 
with systemctl.  Huh?  What is going on?  I was told that systemctl does 
seem to try and make 'sense' out of comments...
