Is it bad to use "hide" and "show" a lot?

[Settle for Pocky]

When I started learning I did a lot of this but learned that you really don't need the "hide" section, but now I really find it useful to keep everything set for me.
The question is will it slow down the performance?

Example:

Code: Select all

    
    show t at t_single
    show tr at t_single
    
    T "112 \"Hey [P]! So glad you came.\""
    
    hide t at t_single
    hide tr at t_single
    show t at t_FCU_single
    show tq at t_FCU_single

For that example I don't "show and hide" everything (such as I would only "show and hide" a new mouth change, but leave the body image alone"

I also had some problems not using hide for some where I needed to put "hide." I heard the names have to be similar for one to replace the other

If you are using a common "family-name" for images intended to be replaced with each other you will not need to hide an earlier image when showing a replacement image.

for example
---------------------
show sami happy
[stuff]
show sami puzzled
-------------------------
You will not need to hide 'sami happy'.
This is what is recommended in the manual.

I do however doubt that the performance will be effected by using hide.
