Title:
   udev/udisks automount waits for 5 seconds

Status in udisks2 package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  In Ubuntu 14.04 and 16.04, when plugging in a USB pen drive, there is
  a lag of 5 or 6 seconds between the kernel detecting the device and
  udev/udisks mounting it. If there are more than one partition on the
  drive, each partition takes another 5 or 6 seconds. In 12.04 the
  automounting started immediately. I tested this with several USB pen
  drives and several computers.

  I consider this a regression (somewhere between 12.04 and 14.04).

  What is the purpose of this delay?

  How can I change it?

  Here is an excerpt of syslog:
