Question to MBA M2 15' owners: when you restart/turn on your mac, do you see the white loading bar twice?

I own Air M2 13" 16RAM 512GB (2022) and Air M2 15" 24RAM 2TB (2023)
When I restart/turn on my 15' mac, after seeing the black screen with an apple and a white loading bar, I am moved to the Sonoma screen to type the password and then I see again a white loading bar and I need to wait another 7s.
This second white loading bar is not present after I type my password on my 13' MacBook!
- the hard drives in both macs are about 30% full
- diagnostic says no errors
- both mac are on 14.4.1

Does any M2 15" owners experience the same?
My 15' mac is a newer device and has more RAM - shouldn't it load faster?
Is it the capacity of the SDD making the difference?
