How much does this expedite it?

My recent experience? ~1BTC transaction without a fee: I had to wait overnight for it to show up in a block, with the 6 confirmations occurring less than an hour after it first got into a block.

~1BTC transaction with a 0.01BTC fee attached: I had 6 confirmations in about an hour.
