I know :)

No, at least not enough to be measured with a stop watch.

From having taken close to 8 seconds (tried repeatedly), after this
change it takes almost 6, so 2 s better. Still a long time, but
better.

That maybe shaves off half a second. Again, hard to done any
scientific tests using a physical stop watch.
