Not in my case, although I'm using the same setup in 22 and 23.

Note that the most dramatic changes are due to my header line (tabbar)  
and also face remapping:

(setq face-remapping-alist nil header-line-format nil)

(NB, I have backported the face remapping functionality to 22, so I  
believe am comparing like for like.)

Without face-remapping and header line, I estimate the slowdown is  
about 20% for me, a noticeable difference.
