(Almost) none. The drawing functions check if the patch is visible, and if not, they don't send any drawing commands to the GUI app. So you only pay for the additional check.

A high metro rate obviously implies a higher CPU load than a low metro rate. If the overall CPU load is significant depends on the actual action triggered by the metro.

But I am using a lot of wiggling GUI things inside the clone instances. Is this a problem?
I have [hsl]s [vsl]s & blinking [bng]s, triggered by a global metro, sample interval (typically) 50 to 250 ms. *[metro 100] -> [s GlobalMetro]* placed at the top level ... all to help me see what is happening.
I realize with [clone], there could be a big CPU cost here.
