Root Possible speed boost?

So, i doubt this will do any real performance boost's, but would there be ANY boost to boot time, or just general speed of a device if you removed every unnessecary line from a file. So pretty much every line that starts with #

Microseconds at best. The only character that matters in a line beginning with # in a script is the #, it does not parse the rest of the line.

It will be interesting to see the results if you get around to doing this
