Calling functions in a loop vs delegates performance?

I'm developing a game in C#/Unity and I'm wondering if there's a performance boost of using a delegate event instead of iterating over a list of objects and calling on functions.

// Which one is more performant?
foreach (Foo foo in someListOfFoo)
{
    foo.Update();
}

// Or...
updateFoos(); // updateFoos is an event

so `updateFoos();` is an `event`? – Willem Van Onsem Mar 30 '17 at 20:19
Yep, sorry for not making that clear. – Shon Verch Mar 30 '17 at 20:19
Assuming that handlers on that event are doing exactly the same thing there is basically no difference from a performance point of view - http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2082735/performance-of-calling-delegates-vs-methods – Eugene Podskal Mar 30 '17 at 20:27
