weight loss and climbing pace

Has there been any research regarding how much (all else being equal) a given amount of weight loss will increase climbing pace on a good (class 1) trail? I've seen research on general running speed versus weight loss (improvement of about 2 seconds / mile / pound), but I'd think that the benefit would be greater for going uphill. Just curious how much improvement I can expect from a 10 to 15 pound weight loss. Would love to, e.g., shave another 5 minutes off my trail head to summit time on Audubon.
