Restart slowdown question

Hi all,

On Windows 7 Home Premium, does doing multiple "restart" start menu button restarts in a relatively short period of time cause slowdown of the restarting process? It happened to me a while ago, with long loading times, black screens with the round loading curser between the "windows is starting" and "welcome" screens and a black desktop background before everything else but the bottom taskbar shows up, after which the regular background, my icons, and the top bar show up. It didn't cause problems per se. Everything worked fine, and a "shut down" start menu button shut down and push button restart quickened things back to normal. Did I just cause code to be backed up and slow it down by restarting it so many times in such a short amount of time? I was doing it for a really stupid reason that was not related in any way to any problem. I was bored and curious as to something I don't remember, and before I knew it, I had restarted the thing like ten times. I'm embarressed even mentioning it. I was alone, bored, curious, and without an internet connection, in my defense. It's not going to happen again.

Also of note: I accidentally bumped the print screen key on one of the restarts, which was the one on when it started to slow down. However, trying this again, (hitting prntscrn on restart to test my theory), did not slow it down.

Thanks for your help.
