Yes; the topic_tools relay node uses more resources than remapping, because it is a separate process that subscribes to the topic, copies the message and publishes it on a new topic.
The resource and performance impact will depend on your data and the computer(s) you're running ROS on. For most systems the resource use is very low, but if you have large messages (tens of megabytes or larger), topics that are published frequently (100Hz or more) or a low latency deadline (5ms or less) then you should measure the performance impact on your system.
