Performance of blank Start, Update, etc. methods

I'm curious on this. If you have thousands of GameObjects with scripts in them, and you have a lot of these stubs in them, wouldn't this invoke unnecessary method calls? Granted, the execution would be super fast since nothing is in them, but I'm thinking in terms of scale, would it be better to just remove them? I haven't run any profiling tests, but I'm curious as to what the general thought is on it.

Code (CSharp):

1.         // Use this for initialization
2.         void Start ()
3.         {
4.        
5.         }
6.        
7.         // Update is called once per frame
8.         void Update ()
9.         {
10.        
11.         }

Excellent link - thanks!

 

If performance is a thing for you and you need stubs, check out ECS. It's very stub and component friendly, and the fastest my code has ever been, even when I used to code in C++ (and I was competent enough to release a game in C++ so no slouch there...)

 

I don't "need" stubs, per se. I was just curious more than anything. I will definitely check out ECS!
