Not tried (would probably be too short to measure effectively) but I'd 
guess it would be the same as for multiuser, see also the FC6 sub-thread

It's all static IP.

And please see my previous post, 1 hour before yours, regarding Fedora 
Core 6: the bring-up of eth0 in Fedora Core 6 is not particularly faster 
or slower than the rest. This is an overall system slowdown (I'd say 
either CPU or disk I/O) not related to the network (apart from being 
triggered by vhost_net).
