By moving xdm start from S99 to S15, I knock two seconds off the boot time; the other tasks S16...S98 run while X is scanning the hardware; by the time the login dialog appears they have all finished. I note that gdm runs at S30, so maybe Gnome users are already seeing some of this benefit. I'm not sure if there's anything important between 16 and 30 that gdm depends on. I chose S15 because the things <15 seem as if they might matter for the desktop (e.g. dbus); but since it takes a finite time to type a password it might still be safe to move xdm even earlier.
