Well, for sure, but not significantly so. And there's a cost to longer
random numbers (which is why people like ports like 5555, 6666, 7777,
etc.)
In realistic examples (and apps) we need a range of ports. We will
eventually need some 'official' ports for things like 0MQ name
services.
I'm sure there are folk here with more experience in this domain.
Let's see if anyone speaks up...
