command-line performance command watch slurm

                          I have an account on a compute cluster which uses the SLURM scheduler. I have some jobs in the queue and I'm using the "watch" command to see their status:

    watch squeue -u myUserName

Does constantly running this command put any significant stress on the scheduler?
