So here is something interesting: I can reproduce and create slow and fast loading initrd's (with grub) on my machine!
I've seen the same behavior on 12.1 (or so) already, and I think I've also seen a bug report about it (I just cannot find it right now). It happened about on every second kernel update, and as for you, calling mkinitrd manually solved it. I never fully debugged it, but I think this might not be a new problem of 12.3.
It might also be pure luck: every call of mkinitrd creates a new binary blob which is placed differently in the filesystem. One time it might be better suited for grub's (pretty primitive) ext2 filesystem driver, the other time it might be ill suited.
"ill suited" how? Above/below the classic 1G/4G/32G barrier? If you have a "slow" and a "fast" initrd, please show filefrag -v /path/to/it for each of them.
