FYI, I have experienced this situation and I have found that it can take more than just ~ 6 reboots before the original "fast" startup is reached. I suspect it has to do in part with what is being done on the computer and how long the computer is running between those reboots. The priority of recreating the caches (which enable faster booting) might be relatively low and might have a time constant built in (I suspect that only someone at Apple really knows what those parameters are).
