Yes, there's less heat escaping. But the water is pretty close to 100 C throughout. Go ahead and try it out :)

If you dice the potatoes very small they will cook perfectly in about 30s in boiling water (it's one of my specialities :D)

30s! That's neat. Is it one of those gadgets that cuts fries, and then you chop the fries into cubes?
