Why would disabling STP on the switch *shorten* the amount of time it takes for the port to come up? At least on Cisco switches, it takes ~45 seconds for the switching topology to converge with STP disabled. Shorter periods if you enable portfast or uplinkfast.
What is meant, I believe, is that the port should be configured as an edge port ("spanning-tree portfast [trunk]" in cisco lingo, "set edge" for junipers). You don't ever want to disable STP anywhere - that's just a recipe for disaster.
