SPI TX complete interrupts are (nearly) worthless; at 20MHz it will take ~400ns
for the buffer to empty after you write the byte into it. You will actually run
slower using SPI interrupts than you would if you just sat and polled the
status bit (and you will be in interrupt mode all the time so it’s not like
you’re going to get anything else done).
Consider that (varying somewhat between systems) it takes on the order of 50
cycles to enter/exit your interrupt handler (three cycles in the pipeline, plus
~20 cycles to stack state depending on your RAM, plus at least two flash
prefetch cache misses if you aren’t lucky enough to have a single-cycle flash).
If you’re worried about hogging the CPU, then you need look at DMA.
