The second udev is just more rules.
    

What about parallelizing udev and rc like in moblin ? Any gotcha there ?

Simo.

  

What would happen if you parallelizing udev and rc on some ancient piece of hardware? Im thinking you might not ever get to a boot screen.
But you could check to see what sort of CPU you have and parallelize conditionally if the hardware can handle it. Conceptually I think parallelizing this stuff is a novel idea. Its feasible in that its been done (i.e. the demo). And if we could optimize udev a bit we might gain a few more seconds there too.
Good topic of discussion anyway...
