1- Wifi cards (when service takes a long time to shutdown you'll experience this)
2- CUPS (shared printers)
Here is a tip to "pinpoint" either service:
1- For wifi test - uncheck the "Enable wireless" option in Network settings and reboot... see if the shutdown returned to usual speed.
2- For CUPS ... from Terminal, execute: sudo systemctl stop cups-browsed (it might take a while to stop)... then reboot or shutdown to test the shutdown speed.
