JESS: Which is faster?

Is there enough of a difference in performance between the following to worry about?

; from Jess
(assert (param-name1 ?param-value1))
(assert (param-name2 ?param-value2))
(assert (param-name3 ?param-value3a ?param-value3b ?param-value3c))
...,etc


                       v.s.

	/* Assert ordered facts from the request parameter map. 
	 * No deftemplate is necessary (I have an unorderd fact version of this too) */
	private void assertRequestParameters(HttpServletRequest request) throws JessException {
		Map map = request.getParameterMap();
		Iterator keys = map.keySet().iterator();
		while (keys.hasNext() == true) {
			String key = (String)keys.next();
			Fact fact = new Fact(key, peerEngine);
			String[] paramValues = (String[])map.get(key);
			ValueVector values = new ValueVector();
			for(String value : paramValues)
				values.add(new Value(value, RU.STRING));
			fact.setSlotValue("_data", new Value(values, RU.LIST));
			peerEngine.assertFact(fact);
		}
