Performance question Drop or Reject

I search the archives for discussions on the performance implications of
Drop/Deny or Reject rules, but only found discussions of how much
information is revealed.

Is there any performance difference between a Drop/Deny or Reject rules?
IDK if it's relevant, but I'm using iptables.   If there isn't performance
hit between the two rules, is there anything else that might steer me
towards picking one over the other?
