I'm no systemd expert. I think it depends on what other services are
enabled and their dependencies. If there is nothing else taking so
long to start as chronyd -s, the multi-user target needs to wait for
chronyd and it will be reported as being in the critical chain.
Is the -s option enabled by default on Arch or have you enabled it
yourself?
