I started the same journey around a week ago, and it's proving a valuable
experience.

After some trimming, I reached a (reported) init startup time of around 0.6s:

root@beagleplay-ti:~# dmesg|grep /sbin
[    0.630046] Run /sbin/init as init process

The result above was obtained on a slightly modified 6.12.4 kernel with a
custom configuration (I am still thinking about the modifications, as they are
a bit unorthodox, but I can share them as well as the defconfig if you are
interested).

In general, I'd suggest to use a recent kernel, as I observed a consistent
reduction of boot time between e.g. 6.6.x and 6.12.x.
