Title:
  lsb_release run at every boot [performance issue]

Status in “base-files” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in “mountall” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:

  Following a change in mountall, /etc/init/mounted-varrun.conf now re-generates
  /var/run/motd from scripts found in /etc/update-motd.d at every boot. One of the
  scripts, 00-header, found in the "base-files" package runs lsb_release, which is
  slow. This speed can be improved by either fixing 00-header to source
  /etc/lsb-release rather than running lsb_release -s -d, or just copying
  /etc/motd to /var/run/motd during the boot sequence.
