Does 'systemd-analyze blame' show which service component causes the delay(s)?  
If the same service dependency occurs on both systems then it ought to take 
the same time to automount an exported directory.  This points to some systemd 
specific  service dependency/hierarchy causing the delay - as long as all 
other configuration variables remain the same.
