Is it OK that I request a considerable amount of access token not reusing API?

In Android API, access token can be re-issued through refresh token.



Even after new access token is issued, the previous one is still valid for expire time(maybe 1 hour).



I am wondering if it is ok to request a new access token everytime I need regardless of how many access token is issued so that I don't mind if the access token is expired or not.



With my simple test, It seems OK. However, I am not sure it is still OK with production service.



Any expected issue, if I request a considerable amount of access token with a refresh token?



Otherwise, should I re-use access token until it is expired?
