I heard that ext2 is faster than ext3 because it doesn't have journaling.
And since /boot doesn't change often, you don't need journaling.
you could just back it up, (if you really want to be on the safe side) and you're okay

and ext4 for /.

I don't know what /. is.... are you just implying hidden files that are normally in home?

 I can go from hitting the start button on the VM to login prompt in 30 secs. That's good enough for me. Can't wait to try on real hardware. Everything looks like it works ok on ext4 but I've only played arround with it for a few min.
