LUT vs Filters?

Quick question regarding LUTs. What takes more system resources (memory, CPU, GPU), a single LUT filter or a string of around 4 or 5 filters? I have some custom color correction filters and the in-built color Color Correction filter on a source and was wondering if it would be better to create a LUT for it instead. This camera has a yellow cast to it compared to the other camera we use and I want to match them as close as possible. I plan to use DaVinci Resolve to color correct a frame capture of the camera source, apply the grade to the neutral-lut.png file OBS supplies, export it, and apply it to the source in OBS. Is this a good workflow? I tried some test and it seems to work well. If this is the preferred way, I can uninstall all my custom filter scripts.
