Traits only cost you if you use them, and their cost is restricted to compilation time. With an adapted opcode cache, and with Dmitry's optimization even that cost should be gone. There is some general performance impact, and that comes from additional fields in the class struct. Thus, every class takes slightly more memory. Beside that, I do not recall performance relevant changes from the top of my head.
