I have made a comparison restoring a production dump with default and large maintenance_work_mem. The speedup improvement here is only of 5% (12'30 => 11'50).
At one point I was evaluating several server vendors and did a bunch of DB restores. The one thing that gave me the biggest benefit was to bump the number of checkpoint segments to a high number, like 128 or 256. Everything else was mostly minor increases in speed.
