I assume that kernel auto-assembly is no faster, although I've never
used it. Regardless, half a second isn't very long to wait.
If you are aiming for a 5-second boot time it's 10% of your total boot
time. That's a lot for a feature that's not needed.
Only if the kernel auto-assembly takes zero time, which it obviously
does not.
the assembly time would probably be the same, but the initramfs being
proposed did not include that time either.
