The time taken will be less but the energy needed will be identical. If we talk number of watts used there is no difference between a gallon of water that has been heated by 20 degrees while in a compact container and a gallon that has been heated by 20 degrees while flattened out. One will be faster but the cost will be the same.

That's oversimplifying things a bit as far as a water heater goes of course but still...
