The larger star will burn out faster. as nuclear fuel is burned out due to higher percentage being consumed.

Explanation:

Gravity on the other hand is only affected a little during this process and mass use. Solar mass loss is caused by mass that is turned into energy (E=mc²), but also by the material that is lost to the solar wind.
