Portals?

Is it worth putting portals in when the zone shares a brush that makes up the back wall? I used 1 brush for the outer wall and multiple inner brushes for walls. Would putting a portal there improve performance or will it make no difference because of the large brush? I have a lot of detail polys (tables etc)

Like I see it in your image it would indeed be worth putting a portal there.
And Joseph is right, the portal like its on the pic won't work.

The brush may be shared in Quark, but once compiled into .dif the faces are cut where other brushes touch or intersect.Like I see it in your image it would indeed be worth putting a portal there.
