Yes it will. The Merchant data feed is just another HTTP request for your
instances to handle - more traffic means more instances will be needed. If
your merchant feed changes slowly or not at all, what you could consider
doing is caching your prepared feed into memcache or instance memory: that
way an instance can rapidly respond to requests and hopefully lower the
total instances required.
