I'll accept this answer... but...

I was referring to the use on the Live CD, not on an installed system.  As
far as I can tell bash is the application started, not getty.  Furthermore,
it appears to save at least 3 MB which is more than one bash instance.
Also, each (according to bootchart) ends up running  a series of checks that
appear to be separate from each other (could be reading wrong).

Thanks for taking the time to answer and your work on Ubuntu!
