I don't think it's actually slowing the overall boot process because services can start on parallel, but anyway I'm asking if this much time is rather expected. All my sources are marked as offline in the config.

That is expected. With the -s option chronyd reads the RTC 8x on start
to make the initial correction of the system clock. If you don't need
that (e.g. you have a network connection most of the time), you can
remove the option.
