Which is faster, referencing a static method or using GetComponent(script)

Hi everyone, which is faster to run on iOS? Sorry if this has been asked before, but I couldn't find it anywhere.

Calling a static method is of course faster than calling GetComponet, but that are two different things. Static methods doesn't belong to a class instance. If you work object oriented you normally work with object instances. To speed things up you should cache the references at Start whenever it's possible. Calling a method of a script instance is almost the same speed as calling a static method.
