After more searching, per Ashley in a different thread:
"You can answer these questions yourself with measurements, but I really don't think it has any significant impact at all. "Every" events don't create timers that need to be tracked, they work more like a condition that says "the timestamp this event last ran is greater than X seconds", which is basically a simple number comparison, which is the kind of thing it is a waste of time to worry about."
So there probably is no significant difference.
