Here is how we do it in Tails:

  * "SquashFS files order" section on
    https://tails.boum.org/contribute/release_process/#index4h1
  * https://tails.boum.org/todo/improve_boot_time_on_cd/
  * config/chroot_local-includes/lib/live/config/0000-boot-profile
    and config/chroot_local-includes/lib/live/config/0000-readahead in
    our Git repository (bugfix/fix_background_readahead branch)
