Interesting article. Well written:

One of the biggest complaints about Linux®, particularly from
developers, is the speed with which Linux boots. By default, Linux is
a general-purpose operating system that can serve as a client desktop
or server right out of the box. Because of this flexibility, Linux
serves a wide base but is suboptimal for any particular configuration.
This article shows you options to increase the speed with which Linux
boots, including two options for parallelizing the initialization
process. It also shows you how to visualize graphically the
performance of the boot process.
Enjoy - Jon
