Not quite the same thing, but still worth a mention:

A few weeks ago some guy reverse-engineered Grand Theft Auto Online's loading code, and figured out where it was spending so much time (as I understood the summary: a badly-written JSON parser). He submitted a fix and the publisher implemented it into a patch shortly thereafter.

I can personally vouch that loading time has been cut down substantially. And it had been plaguing the game since day one.
