I use insserv on my desktop/laptop computers. My laptop boots in less
than a minute from Grub to a usable desktop, including two password
prompts (cryptdisks, gdm). Making /bin/sh point to /bin/dash might help
a bit, too. And of course, not running Gnome or KDE greatly shortens the
time you have to wait after login.
