Title:
  blkid and gparted are extremely slow in a persistent live session

Status in “gparted” package in Ubuntu:
  New
Status in “util-linux” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  sudo blkid is extremely slow in a persistent live session (9 min 20 seconds)
  but finally it finds loop mounted devices and zRAM devices
  sudo blkid /dev/sd* is responsive as usual, also
  sudo blkid  /dev/[hslz]* but not
  sudo blkid  /dev/f*

  Is the problem that it spends this time searching for a non-existing
  floppy drive?

  This is not a problem in previous Ubuntu systems, for example the main
  installed system Ubuntu 12.04.2 precise
