The more customized your kernel to your system, the better. But often
improvements don't compensate the amount of work it requires to end up
with a kernel fully optimized to your system.

I usually use Debian kernel's config as my .config when compiling a
new kernel. And Debian's config more or less expect you to be using
initrd. That's why I usually use initrd when compiling a custom kernel
although probably it would be better not to use it. For me, it's a
balance between amount of work needed and real improvement.

My two euro cents. :)

Cordially, Ismael
