I don't fully understand what you explained above.
Could you explain more?

Having a bunch of unused processes hanging around could make it less
likely to hit a process that is pre-loaded in the processor cache, and
more likely to hit a process that has been swapped to disk-based mem
cache.  The first issue should be relatively minor, but the second
could be quite major if you don't have enough physical ram.
