There's less than 1 second improvement from GRUB timeout to login prompt on the VM backed by SSD. There's maybe 4 seconds improvement on bare metal using this same "feel" metric. I haven't used gummiboot, so maybe I'll do some testing in the next cycle. For now, I've had quite enough of "it's a dessert topping and a floor wax" Rube Goldberg method of booting a computer with a UX I could hardly imagine my Doppelgänger inventing. > (And 10s boot, that's bad. Do you have LVM in the loop? No LVM in either case. The 10s result is ext4 no journal single partition, VDI, VirtualBox, on OS X, on SSD. So that's two hits (vbox and xnu).
