Hello Jean-François,
as Hans already pointed out, the size of the texmf tree matters. IMO
it's not a good idea to change TeX Live's configuration. You can't
achieve a significant improvement this way. And please avoid
TeX-related environment variables whenever possible.
of course with ssd's and plenty of memory (so the OS can cache lost of
files) things became less an issue the last decade
