Does a brush's image material size affect performance?

Recently I started dabbling in making my own brushes and I started off with making a custom pencil. For the brush tip I used various ellipses that have image sizes of 2000x2000, as per a tutorial I saw online but I was wondering if they need to be so large, since it's a brush that I'm mostly going to use for linework.
If I should change the materials, is there also a way to open them as images and edit them directly? Because so far I've been making completely new ones whenever I've wanted to update them and that seems a little... inefficient

I apologize in advance if these are dumb questions but I'm still something of a noob when it comes to both clip studio and working digitally

It ’s a simple question, but it ’s important to increase your experience.
So, it takes time, but I think that you should make it about 2000/1000/500/300 and test which one is easy to use by yourself.
I think that deterioration can be minimized by making a material from a large size down.
Acquiring experience is not inefficient.

Huh. There's no reply option. Well, anyway, thanks for the response and you're definitely right about the experience part but the inefficiency I mentioned comes from the fact that instead of downsizing the materials for the brush I'm using, I'm completely recreating them at smaller resolutions from scratch instead which I'm sure isn't the proper way to do it. I'm just at a loss at how to directly edit these materials, as you would any other piece of artwork

Do you use the actual tip of the brush at 2000px?
Will it be 200-300px?
Are you worried about the details because the tip changes randomly at the same time?

I'm tired of being your partner.

No, I use the brush at about 10px on average, my computer would explode if it tried to run a 2000px brush haha. it's the materials (I've attached a photo of what I mean) that I created that have a resolution of 2000x2000, and I don't know if that's necessary, or even how to edit these materials. I'm sorry if what I'm saying is confusing but I'm just getting more and more confused myself

I encouraged you to try it out.
Do you need a 2000px original picture? Requirement if possible.
