Yeast Starter Vs. Double Pitching

[sksmith66]

wondering if anyone has any opinions on doing a yeast starter versus just double pitching for really high gravity brews (over 1.1). obviously there are financial concerns with pitching two packets of yeast, but other than that will there be a noticable effect in the final product.
