I just tried what something similar to this (a non-boosted query vs a
simple boosted query)
on a 10M document test index.

#Non boosted
q=myfield:[* TO *] dummy_i:1

#Boosted
q={!boost b=2 v=$qq}
qq=myfield:[* TO *] dummy_i:1

Notes:
  - the dummy was just used to change the query so there would be no
cache it (I set it to something different for each try)
  - "myfield" is a single valued field that only has 10 unique terms
(so the range query should be fast), and does select all 10M docs

My results:  normal=386ms   boosted=481ms
