The coordinates and B-factors shaking itself take fractions of a second. 
The question is how many refinement macro-cycles you will need to 
perform after that to make sure the memory is removed and proper R/Rfree 
values are recovered back (5 or 10 or 50 or ...?).

As for the second part of your question -- I don't know and I don't 
think there is a definitive answer to this. I never did any comparisons.
