Sometime several months back while I was busy juggling many things, I made some alteration to my Node-RED setup that results in a long (2-5 second) pause whenever I do a deployment. I am sure if I had attacked the issue right when it started it would have been obvious what I had changed. Unfortunate…

If you edit your settings file to set the logging level to "trace" then you'll get trace log statements for each node as it is being stopped and restarted. Using that you should be able to identify which node, if any, is causing the delay.

Thanks for the guidance.
I am fairly sure now my issue was that I had made a large number of changes without updating and committing that in my Project History (a very bad habit).
