As far as boot times go, there was a long discussion[1] on the devel-
list, which also resulted in a tool[2] for boot process analysis.
Later, David Zeuthen also posted a very detailed analysis[3], with many
ideas for improvements.

Unfortunately, it seems that these improvements didn't make it into FC4.
But going through these resources, you should at least be able to do
some tweaking on your own.
