No idea. You might ask Tomeu Vizoso (I've added him to cc) for details 
(or search for the thread "On-demand device registration" where he 
complained that his chromebook boots slow). I've just measured, that 
most my ARM boxes booted faster when I've used the ordering, instead of 
slower through the introduce overhead to order initcalls (without having 
parallelized the initcalls).

Posting times doesn't make much sense, as they heavily depend on the 
configuration. Instead I've posted patches so you can test it yourself.

But if you want a real time, my Netbook with a single core but HT Atom 
N270 boots in one second instead of two to "dmesg | grep Freeing".
