At this point I've seen a number of these relatively undocumented tricks. Is there a list of common and not-so-common optimizations anywhere? The Wiki, perhaps?

It is not an optimization in itself, but a feature of the system.

It also breaks things like automatic timezone updates from geolocation and so on. So you need to know what you're doing if applying such "optimization". But yes, it can be useful on a server that is agreed to always be a certain timezone, on laptop/desktop - not so much as its workflows don't really hit that like some specific cases for a server software where I also read about this.
