Moving it to CF does not help your boot time significantly, even if CF access is faster than your HDD. Majority of boot time from the time the computer received power is BIOS and kernel decompression which initializes the devices. Then your distro sets up the system thru /etc/init.d. Unless you have a fast BIOS, what you can really do to save time is in the OS setup. Less processes = less time.
