user5487 Big SpriteFonts may increase memory usage, but if you need to update text often, they are better for performance.
Changing large Text objects every tick

Change the size or text of a Text object every tick can produce poor performance. The problem is even worse if the text object is large. Text rendering is very fast as long as the object is not changing, but upon changing the object must do a relatively expensive redraw of the text and replacement of the cached texture. Try to use small Text objects that do not change regularly. If you must change text regularly, consider using a Sprite Font instead, which is fast even when it changes every tick.
