MacFixIt has an interesting article in this regard.  If you are 
interested, you should read the article before the end of today (Sunday) 
because the article is likely to be gone by Monday.

"Increasing performance by quitting remnant or unnecessary system 
processes"
http://www.macfixit.com 

Basically the article says that remnants of previously uninstalled 
programs may be using CPU time and may eventually slow your computer 
significantly.
