To a certain extent, it will increase the load but that should only be a problem for a few servers who are running at a heavy load and couldn't handle any increase.
True, as I said any commercial/major site should be able handle the extra load, but as our main webserver has been running at a constant load of 3+ for the last few months I've gotten a little 'twitchy' about things that'll fry it. Thankfully the new one should be here soon.
Either way I see it as bad manners, if you want better preformance it should be you who pays for it, not someone else.
