It might not be swap and might be the h/w detection initialization that 
is taking time. What do the dmesg and syslog show? What h/w does the 
machine has?
You might also want to boot without the "rhgb quiet" options in the 
bootloader configuration. Get a serial console to capture the bootup 
data and see if you find something.
