That is a very hard question to answer. Some queries have only a few
possible plans, so few or no statistics are fine. Other queries require
detailed statistics to generate efficient plans. I think you need to
set up a dummy server with no stats and try your workload on that, then
run the stages manually and test after each stage to see how the
performance is.
