It will, and considerably so. Further speedups are very possible, but
that requires a slight re-design of object lookup code.

That's weird, considering hash-collisions were much more frequent with
the old code and it was properly handled.
If you're interested in helping with this, I'd be delighted if you could
send me your configuration so I can test it myself. You can remove any
sensitive data, so long as object identifiers remain the same
(host_name, service_description, hostgroup_name and so on...).
If this is not an option, I might still be able to fix something up but
testing won't be as reliable.

This was expected (a very small speedup for a large amount of objects).
GUI speedups require a re-design, and that's wasted effort considering
the pending new GUI, which will have the chance to redo design from the
ground up.
