TrakEM: When are mipmaps necessary?

Hey guys,
 
I'm working through implementing this pipeline in TrakEM (right now, using Jython and building from Albert's script on the project website):
1. Import images
2. Apply CLAHE filter to patches
3. Elastically align layers
4. Export transformed layers as images
 
When should I generate/regenerate mipmaps? Is is possible to get through that process without generating mipmaps at all?
 
Thanks for the help!
