A very simple optimization question, particle

Question

Hello everyone, i have a real quick and simple question. I am emitting a smoke particle out of my guns barrel each time i fire. Particle is set not to loop, and when i fire i simply do this :

 smokeParticleSystem.Emit(15);

it works fine, but should i deactivate particle gameObject when i am not firing, and activate it again and then emit ? Or just leave it activated all the time, just make it emit when i fire ? Which one is more optimized way, i need to be really careful about the performance of cpu & gpu thats why i am asking. Or is there really a huge difference ?

Unless you have hindered a of these weapons on screen I doubt it will make an appreciable difference. That said making a GameObject inactive will almost always improve performance.
