I would like to delay providing this service till completion of the OS startup (all OS daemons are up and running) so that it does not affect boot time. Service initialization is a cpu intensive activity. Is there any OS event to know whether the startup is completed or not?
Does the login screen have some particular process name? Perhaps you
could poll for its existence, then sleep a few seconds, and iterate
until it appears.
However the user might have selected automatic login - to handle that
one would need to watch for the Finder to appear as well.
