I'd say if it's not broken, don't fix it.
My Desire Z can lock within 10 seconds. I saw some GPS fix (the same gps.conf fix) few weeks ago and thought of maybe turbocharging it to make it lock within 1 second. Ended up after the 'fix' it took me more than 5 minutes, sometimes not even getting a lock until I restart the GPS. I tried undoing the 'fix' but the GPS was never the same.
It wasn't until I make a full wipe and reinstalled my ROM that I regained my 10 second GPS lock.
Only try this if your stock settings do not give you a reasonable GPS lock time.
