Yeah, I'm aware of the need to deal with non-identical hardware, and for
each system to boot up with unique hostnames, etc., making a need for a
clone to be an almost-finished install.

But my question still stands.  I'm curious as to whether there's a
significant speed difference between cloning and finishing the install,
compared to doing a fresh install on each computer.
