Question:Performance impact of nested procedures?

If a sub-procedure A is defined inside another procedure B, and procedure B is called in a performance-critical inner loop, will the Maple interpreter read the definition of A again every time procedure B is called? I'm wondering if I should just avoid nested procedures, as how you would write programs in C, as opposed to Pascal which allows nested procedures.
