I seems to make a difference for me. Not major, but noticeable. :)

I have a celeron 2ghz cpu and 256 MB of ram and the difference is really noticeable.Here is an explanation why it works by Kerry_s from ubuntuforums :"This is a fix for the new system that was started back in edgy where the host name was split off to 127.0.1.1, the problem is that some applications still look for the host name @ 127.0.0.1, so to keep those applications happy and running smoothly you simple need to add the host name where those applications expect it to be."
