Looks quite good, actually. Like Fred says, integrate, then you will have

Try amorphous or nanocrystalline cores, too. They switch quite quickly.
I've built a toy circuit that generated enough harmonics to cause itself to
ring a bit; the risetime was under 1us.
Physics guys use the stuff to generate fast (1us) current pulses for
particle accelerators and junk. They drive them with 3kA+ IGBTs, which
don't even switch as fast (~1us). Lots of power density.

Nonlinear transmission lines are cool. You can make them with
saturating inductors, ceramic capacitors, or varicap diodes, even
ordinary power diodes. You can get the risetime to go down as a step
propagates down the line.
Check; i have heard stories about sub-nanosecond risetimes.
