What extra overhead, did you think that storage within your program is somehow faster than storage you have getmained?
The extra process of getting and freeing storage is probably the only extra thing you need to do. Otherwise, just like code is code, storage is storage. WHere that storage is located might be slower or faster depending on lots of things. Is that something you are worried about for some reason?
