Perhaps most of the time, but not always. There's something to be 
said for short cute scripts that are easy to read, but may be a bit 
slower. For example, this:

on test
    repeat with a = 1 to 10000
       something
    end
end

on something
    really do something
end

would be a lot slower than:

on test
     really do something
     really do something
     really do something
     really do something
     really do something
     really do something
     really do something
     really do something
     really do something
     really do something
--(etc, 10000 times in your script)
end

but it would be easier to manage.
