Are CHtml made tags significantly slower than raw HTML tags?

hi friends,

i found myself fond of writing CHtml tags instead of raw html tags in my views and layouts, but still with some concern: will this practice significantly slow down the execution of the pages?

or let me put it this way: do i need to use CHtml (or any other Yii classes) ONLY when it is definitely necessary?

does

CHtml::link(‘clike me’,array(‘site/index’),array(‘class’=>‘highlighted’))

cost much?

thanks

what is significantly for you?

It must be slower, this alone not significant… but if you stop writing html and always use CHtml, you will lose 0.01+ I think
