Well, it does nothing to speed up those pages
directly, but by deferring writing to thread table, the thread table is "read locked" less of the time, which in turn speeds up any page where the thread table is read (forumdisplay, showthread, index, search results).
So this hack helps for boards with many simultaneous users. If you've got 20 people browsing, you're not going to see any difference.
