Default Dahlia tubers in hot water

The risk of frost has passed (fingers crossed, well i do live near the city) and am going to plant a dormant dahlia tuber.

Read somewhere they perform better/grow quicker if you submerge the tuber in hot water before planting.

Anyone able to confirm, and give more details as it didn't recommend a temperature or time for submerging

thanks
