*** WARNING: UNSUPPORTED HACK BELOW ***
Edit /etc/conf.d/rc and screw around with some of the settings. In
particular, RC_PARALLEL_STARTUP will probably be a benefit on laptops
(lots of CPU and terrible I/O). You may also gain from (ab)using the
tmpfs settings (again, sucky I/O).

These settings are quite possibly broken.
*** END HACK ***

Also, aim for a nice small kernel without modules. Cut out all the junk
you don't use, look at the embedded options and maybe consider some of
the patches from the -tiny tree.
