It shouldn't help anything open quicker unless you have some rogue
setting fouling things up.  If you suspect something is queer with your
config files, or just want to try for curiosity, you should just create
a new user and log in as that user.  If your applications are suddenly
noticeably more responsive, then certainly you can experiment with
zapping configuration files/directories until you find the culprit.
