Omarchy lab breaks the 10-second boot mark
On September 18, 2026, DHH posted that the latest Omarchy lab turbocharging had broken under the 10-second boot mark. It is a lab performance claim with a screenshot on the post—not a numbered release note.

The claim is about boot time in that lab setup: he frames it as pushing acceleration until the laws of physics stop the work, not as a shipping checklist item.
The post includes a photo of the result on X. Open the post to see the screenshot he attached.
He does not list the machine, kernel, disk, or measurement method in the text. Treat the “under 10 seconds” line as what he announced from the lab, not a full bench report.
This sits apart from the recent v4.0.4 release notes: it is a lab milestone shout, not a new ISO tag.
If you chase boot times yourself, use his post as the pointer; the numbers and hardware details beyond that mark are not in the tweet.
