After creating a rep where all the models not necessary to the render are excluded...

Is it more efficient, compute wise, to make the remaining models.

Master Reps, Geometery Reps, or Graphics Reps?

Efficient in the sense that less Virtual Memory is needed or more importantly fewer CPU cycles are needed?
 
The PTC hotline says...

There is no benefit to using graphics or geometry reps when rendering. Only by excluding components/features is there a performance benefit while rendering.
