I don't know if it's relevant... but there is a situation that is maybe 
similar when my MacBook boots up (before it even gets to GRUB), if 
there's a CD in the drive, it wastes about 15 extra seconds spinning it 
up to look at it, even if I'm not booting from CD.  So that might be a 
sort of thing to watch out for, when making GRUB search?
