Which is faster graph vs fql???

Hi,

Wondering if there is any difference in perfomance:
using graph vs fql

$friends =  $facebook->api("/$user/friends");

Code (markup):

vs something like this fql

SELECT uid2 FROM friend WHERE uid1 = me()

Code (markup):

Any info

 

Graph API is better than FQL since it involves calling facebook API only once. while FQL involves processing + calling.
