Vac pump to bleed coolant?

I just bought a vacuum pump and was wondering if anyone has used one to bleed the cooling system. I know they can bleed brakes (same idea) and other things, but has anyone tried bleeding coolant this way?

Nah, easy enough to use the bleeder screws.

True, but I was curious if it made the process faster or got more air out. Hey if it makes life easier, why not try it right?
