Fuel Savings From Cg

Hi all,
Can somebody quantify the fuel savings of an aft Cg as opposed to an extrem Fwd Cg? i would really be interested to know what the difference is in real numbers.

we have always been taught that an aft Cg saves fuel and some w&b systems actually suggest an optimal LIZFW (usually around 10pt from aft limit)

Is it worth my while trying to achieve an optimal Cg on a short sector eg dub-fra ??

thanks, john.
