After the patch, the boot up time was 346s, a saving of 348s > (about 50%). I second scaling the up-front init with the zone size. The 7TB system I was booting has only 32GB per NUMA node, which at 1GB per 0.25TB would work out at 128MB up-front init per-NUMA-node, which worked nice and booted faster yet. Even booting with 64MB per NUMA node worked great, so there is adequate margin for the 8 cores, just I guess we'd need to enforce a minimum of eg 64MB or so.
