the second one, you cock the gun once and commence shooting, until your internals miss the sear and you have to re-cock the gun.

you said "until my internals miss the sear" usually how often does this happen?

depends on a couple things, if you are gonna try and get higher rates of fire, then it is gonna be more prone to do this. also if you don't properly clean and lube the gun it will be more prone to it as well. and whenever you chop paint.

so pretty much just keep your gun cleaned and maintenance up, along with a fast hopper and you should be fine as long as you stay within the hoppers feeding rates.
