Question about draw calls

[JonnyAnomaly]

Awesome, thanks! You mention the number of separate meshes - I'm using a wood beam to make lots of things in the level editor by duplicating them. If I use this object 10 times to make a banister for example, would you say that is generally a better practice than creating a separate, complete banister piece and using the same texture?

I mention this because I have hundreds of these, I'm making everything out of them
