Hmm.. i think if you compile from source according to your architecture, you WILL notice some improvements! Anyway, this wont break anything, so no harm trying! I compiled some packages with it.. Right now compiling firefox
IMHO you will just increase the size of your install by doing what is explained in the article while gaining a minuscule performance. This process does not disable static libraries and thus compiles & installs both dynamic & static libraries on your system. This will not break the packages but will increasez the size of installation to almost double. Usually all the user centric distros do not install static libraries thus keeping the size smaller.
