Yes it does.

First time:

powerhorse:~ jo$ time bzr
usage: bzr COMMAND
   try "bzr help"

real    0m2.550s
user    0m0.280s
sys     0m0.130s

Fifth time:

powerhorse:~ jo$ time bzr
usage: bzr COMMAND
   try "bzr help"

real    0m2.567s
user    0m0.300s
sys     0m0.160s
powerhorse:~ jo$

The other times I ran it (second up to the fourth), it was 
approximately equally slow.

Kind regards,
