Is graphics.beginBitmapFill() being slow a fact known to anyone but me ?

I am trying to make a 3d game , and I need to draw vectors AND bitmaps all into the same Graphics class so I am forced to use beginBitmapFill .

I could workaround with BitmapData but keeping the whole engine into a single Graphics class makes my code clean and simple .
