My primary complaint for the long boot time is udev... It takes 20 seconds on my 800MHz system, even if I disable MOD_AUTOLOAD. But I guess this is not arch specific, I have seen similar times on other distros as well and even minutes of wait time on older systems.
I suppose it has to do with the "including the kitchen-sink" default kernel, which causes udev_settle to wait for too many triggered events. So one solution would be to compile a custom kernel, with only the necessary modules enabled. Any other ideas on improving udev?
