Is this efficient - adding gesture recogniser to every UITableViewCell

is it efficient for the app to add a gesture recogniser to every cell in a table view. The cells can be as less as 10 or as much as 1000.

I mean will it effect scrolling behaviour, memory usage, and general stability?

And the cells are custom cells with 3 labels with different colors.

Thank you!

It depends how you do it. Table cells memory management is very good, that's what the [tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:CellIdentifier]; is all about. So if you made sure you didn't have hundreds of gesture recognizers then there shouldnt be a problem. Try and make it so that you only have as many as there are resuable cells.

Since the UITableView reuses cells the performance will be pretty much the same for 10 and 1000 cells (depends on how much fit on a single page of the table). Table cells already have gesture recognizers (the swipe to delete gesture), so you should have no problem doing so, too.
