From your numbers:

1. runtime memory reduction: ~25%

2. Boot time reduction: 20%

3. Time to interaction reduction: 20%

For apps with significant boot times, and runtime memory consumption, this is valuable.

This assumes that the reductions are purely proportional to the total and not (at least partially) fixed.
