"For a long time, Linux has been blamed to boot slowly, compared to other modern operating systems. In this article, we are going to focus on a new init system we developed for our Pardus Linux distribution, Mudur, together with other initiatives that are worth mentioning. Mudur is written from scratch in Python with simplicity, speed and maintainability in mind. It isn't a replacement for the /sbin/init command like some other alternatives, nor just a parallel script executor. Mudur greatly simplified our boot process, making it faster and more flexible. Authors look forward for future boot process research for further improvement and optimizations."

These things feels snappy on windows compared with linux; but It's not a big deal for non professionals who are not much demanding.
I think you got that mixed up. Professionals don't give a shit about whether their system boots up in 30 or 60 seconds. Non-professional kids do.
