Here is a short video showing the execution/loading times between every iPhone on the market, starting from the iPhone 2G and ending in the iPhone 4.
BTW, pretty cool difference in black levels when you compare the iPhone 3GS to the iPhone 4 (clearest difference at the end of the video where you can see them being shut-down).
