I wouldn't know how to test this without implementing it.
It is simple to test it. Put `-*-coding: utf-8;-*-' on the first line
of the file, then visit it using find-file. How fast is that?
How does it compare, in time, with the two cases you tested?
All I was saying is that Stefan's proposal looks
like micro-optimization to me, since detecting the coding system of the
init file is only a very small part of Emacs' startup time.
My guess is the same as yours. The method I suggest above will make
it possible to answer the matter factually.
