The dtrace enhanced version of bootchart may be helpful.  See
http://alexeremin.blogspot.com/2009/01/boot-chart-with-help-of-dtrace-and.html
for details.  In order to get the python program found in the milax
repo to work I needed to:

1) pkg install SUNWpython-imaging
2) fix the path to the fonts

The bootchart from my system is available at
http://cr.opensolaris.org/~mgerdts/bootchart/bootchart.png.  There
seems to be some odd time gaps (e.g. after wificonfig) and I don't see
the gnome-terminal that I used after boot in the output.  This could
use a bit of investigation.

All the relevant files I used are at
http://cr.opensolaris.org/~mgerdts/bootchart/.
