Very nice! I would suggest testing on a c5.large. t2 and t3 have shared CPUs, so they have less consistent boot time. c5.large is about the same cost as t3.large, but will have far more consistent performance. > I'll post a WIP MR on salsa next. Some cleanup is needed still. Thank you for working on this! Have you confirmed that with the optimizations, you can boot without needing an initramfs? - Josh Triplett
