Hi Khem, thanks for your pointers. Just gave that a shot, and my
initramfs uImage actually takes longer to boot (at about 9 seconds
from cold to user space vs 7 seconds before). Good data point!

Hello everyone, I thought I'd compare the performance of booting
rootfs from MMC vs ramdisk (the way Android is doing it). Some says it
may possibly take longer in ramdisk because the rootfs has to be first
loaded into memory. I'd like to test it out myself.
So I discovered

Hi Nicolas, thanks for your response. I built core-image-minimal in
cpio, but the size is whopping 69MB. It will take a couple seconds
just to load the image into the memory, which defeats the purpose of
using the ramdisk to boot. After watching 300 ms from reset-to-shell
boot video [1] using
ah I spoke too soon. I had extra DISTRO_FEATURES. I removed them and
the root is ~2.5MB.
Now it's worth a try.
