Yes, it all helps. I find most Pi's can handle sdram_freq=600.
It is mostly the arm_freq that affects add-on speed.
They are written in python which isn't the fastest language. It's often the RegEx code that is slow in these.
Many add-ons perform quite well on Pi (I use iplayer regularly and that's pretty responsive).
With a bit of tweaking some have been improved a lot (I think Sports Devil was made several times faster by tweaking the RegExes).
If there is a specific add-on that is slow, reporting it here may be worthwhile:
