[OpenCore] Troubleshooting slow boot. OC spends 1 minute+ looking for APFS container and partitions.

OC (v0.5.7) takes almost 2 minutes to show the picker.

Hardware is basic though: Z370 board, i9-9900k, Samsung Evo 970 NVMe, 16GB RAM.

Most of the time is spent in APFS related tasks, e.g:

OCBP: APFS volume info is missing.

OCBP: No APFS Info 0 of 8 - Not found

OCBP: APFS Volume info is missing

I used to have a Windows partition on the drive, but I deleted everything on macOS install and now have a single container with a single APFS partition.

How can I fix this slow boot? I read that OC is supposed to boot in ~30s on recent hardware.
