What;s the point of use of this app?

Of course that I read this http://www.sentia.org/projects/dmassage/ ,
but is it really so faster after that? I haven't problem with speed of
boot in OpenBSD. It's quite similar as in Ubuntu and kernel size is
7.2MB. Page says that last version is from 2002. A LOT of changes in
OpenBSD kernel and binaries from that time so maybe this script
doesn't work correctly anymore. In your case it fails on softraid(4)
(?) and softraid(4) was introduced in OpenBSD 4.2 (2.9.2007 as mirror
says).
