Interesting - a while ago when I implemented VSA code into LinuxBIOS on
a GX platform, my entire boot time was 9.5 seconds, which by this
calculation means that LinuxBIOS and loading a kernel would have taken
-0.5 seconds. Serious though, I found a negligible impact on boot times
with/without VSA code.
I do not buy that argument.
