What is the performance impact of LoadControl?

What is the performance impact of using Page.LoadControl in ASP .NET to load User Controls that are compiled outside of the "parent" application?

Beware: If you're creating the ascx file dynamically and then loading it, it will have to invoke csc (the c# compiler) every time you load the control, so you would be lucky to process 2 or 3 per second. If you're re-loading existing controls which have already been compiled, the overhead will be much smaller.

It also depends on how many controls you want to load and where in the Page life-cycle. A few controls is okay for the performance, if it isn't too complex as said by Joseph. However when you add 20/30/or more controls every step in your life-cycle will dramatically increase.

That completely depends on the complexity of the control you're loading into the page.
