Any benefit to import java.util.Vector over import java.util.*?

Question

By benefit I mean does it reduce compile time or have some other beneficial side effect to import only those classes you're using in a class rather than importing the package they reside in.
For example:
// this?
import java.util.Vector;
// or this..
import java.util.*;
class Test
     Vector v;
}Question is strictly academic...I'm just curious.

I like Dr. clap's answer. Also, though you can
consider code readability. Obviously importing a
whole package doesn't give you an idea of what classes
are being used. "I", personally, have only seen exact
class imports done when learning something new. This
is basically just for clarity, and not speed as Dr.
Clap pointed out.That's probably a good thing to do for examples, but I can't see why you would want to know what individual classes are being used otherwise.
From a programming standpoint if you're going to build a complex dialog you don't want 500 import statements. If you know you're going to be using lots of classes from an individual package might as well import the whole thing.
