Has anyone tried booster to replace mkinitcpio? (lemmy.ml)

Does this give any real world value for boot times or anything else?

I have no possibility to test this in VM so that's why I'm asking if anybody has actually tried this and found benefits.

How was it? Where exactly you saw difference?

There might be some speed improvement (not that noticeable). But I can control the modules more freely than mkinitcpio, so I like it more.
