Edd can gear up in minutes. So it is possible. If you are slow to gear up, chances are its got more to do with you then the configuration. BTW I am one of the slow ones, at least for now.

one of my dive buddies is very talkative and he is very slow getting into the water. He could be fast, he just takes his sweet time, talks to everyone around, and that's just him.
Part of it is me being "methodical."
Jokes aside, I can be fast when needed. When gearing up for a 2hr cave dive, a few extra minutes doesn't really matter. However, on my honeymoon we were doing little rec dives. Time mattered...so I was fast. I got geared up before anyone else, had an issue with my gear (blown o-ring), ungeared, fixed it, regeared, and I still wasn't the last one in the water.

Have you been talking to my wife?
Sorry. Couldn't resist.
