The last I checked, the copy of the crash dump is already done in
parallel to normal multi-user boot.
I think the dump of physical ram to core has to be done before the
reboot (fast or otherwise) in order to prevent loss of data. (The
contents of RAM are not guaranteed to be the same after the reboot
cycle, even for a fast reboot.)
