Does importing extra skies into photoshop use up memory or slow down sky replacement?

A thousand sky images?  My 5000 x 3000 skies saved to JPG with quality set to 10 are a bit under 4Mb on the drive.  I don't know how skies are handled but it seems likely that is going to hit system resources.  We have seen what looks like a managing on the drive, so it might only keep thumbnails in memory.   If that's the case then no propblem.


Maybe I'll just use aparticular folder e.g. sunsets and delete when finished, and just load what I need at the time.
