Subject: [Caml-list] empty mli for executable

ocaml compiler executables have empty mlis with the following comment
(*
  this "empty" file is here to speed up garbage collection in ocamlopt.opt
*)

Can someone explain this in more detail?
How does empty interface lead to faster gc-ing?

Thanks,
     Milan
