Sure it will. It will stop the shell asking the cache for status. So the
cache won't start crawling those areas at all.

Well, it will slow down the system a little when you start up. Depending
on your working copy, I guess this could take about ten minutes. After
that, the cache knows the status of all the files in the working copy
and will stop crawling. It will start crawling again as soon as you
browse the working copy with the explorer, but 're-crawling' is a lot
faster and you won't really notice that.
