No, just the current defaults in sid. What services are started can be
seen here (vertical lines drawn each second):

Total boot time is about 30-35 seconds, depending on how fast I enter my
disk encryption + login passwords. For chart rendering, I have
temporarily disabled my encrypted /home.
I don't use any of the big desktop environments, just plain awesome (the
window manager). But that isn't included in the chart anyway.
BTW, I tried slim instead of gdm, but I found it to be a little bit on
the buggy side and IIRC it lacks a few features I like (don't remember
which).
