Hi folks,

there are some ideas for future sppedup of cdk box I had in queue,
want to give them out now in expectation that someone on developer side
can engage more.

1) Grub delay

   Grub has 5 seconds timeout in CDK. We can probably change to 1 or even 0.

2) Initrd delay

   Roughly 4 seconds, probably not worth the optimization in first round.

2) Starting services 

   Probably starting bunch of services which are not needed. 
   By far longest one is kdump.

   - quickly tried systemd-analyze on CDK after first boot:
     - biggest thing - kdump took ~ 25seconds and system is waiting for it
       do we need it in cdk box by default?
     - probably bunch of small things for no reason, like
       wpa supplicant service - no wifi in cdk
   - we could investigate possibilities of 
     systemd-readahead-collect and systemd-readahead-replay
     (although probably not so useful in vm)

Hope this helps,

David
