Yes, I can reproduce this. Also, interestingly, with the -icount version
when I typed 'exit' to quit the guest I got this abort:

Title:
-icount increases boot time by >10x
Status in QEMU:
Confirmed
Bug description:
When I specify the -icount option, some guest operations such as
booting a Linux kernel take more than 10 times longer than otherwise.
For example, the following will boot Aboriginal Linux to the login
prompt about 6 seconds on my system (using TCG, not KVM):
wget
http://landley.net/aboriginal/downloads/old/binaries/1.4.5/system-image-i686.tar.gz
gunzip <system-image-i686.tar.gz | tar xfv -
cd system-image-i686
sh run-emulator.sh
If I replace the last line with
QEMU_EXTRA="-icount shift=auto" sh run-emulator.sh
booting to the login prompt takes about 1 minute 20 seconds.
I have tried different values for "shift" other than the "auto" used
above, but have not been able to find one that gives reasonable
performance. Specifying "sleep=off" also did not help.
During the slow boots, qemu appears to spend most of its time
sleeping, not using the host CPU.
I see this with multiple versions of qemu, including current git
sources (c181ddaa176856b3cd2dfd12bbcf25fa9c884a97), and on multiple
host OSes, including Debian 9 on x86_64.
