Kinda annoying that the article doesn't really answer the core question, which is how much time was saved in the start up time. It does give a 0.05ms per tooltip figure, so I guess multiplied by 38000 gives ~2s saved, which is not too bad.

"Together, these two problems can result in the editor spending an extremely long time just creating unused tooltips. In a debug build of the engine, creating all of these tooltips resulted in 2-5 seconds of startup time. In comparison development builds were faster, taking just under a second."
