Yes, it's faster. But I can't recall the timings that I took earlier
and only have 1 XO at the moment.
The IRC conversation you refer to (where initramfs uncompress took
more than 30 seconds) was an unexplained oddity that can't be
reproduced. (I suspect some kind of jffs2 corruption on the laptop in
question)
