I don't know, that wasn't the problem I was trying to solve. If your
question is, "6 + 2-in-loader-conf" then I imagine that it would be
about the same speed, maybe a little slower due to extra file
open-read-close cycles. If it's "6 + 2-in-kld_list" then I imagine it
would be quite a bit faster than an 8 M kernel, but I look forward to
the results of your testing. :)
