It depends on the obfuscator. It could potentially do any of the three.
I wouldn't expect very significant changes, though.

There are obfuscators that simply rename identifiers, which could slightly 
change your filesize, but shouldn't affect code execution (unless I 
misunderstand how the swf is decompiled in the player).

There are other obfuscators that rewrite the bytecode instructions, which could 
affect execution speed to some degree, but I doubt it's much.

I know some obfuscators also offer features like encrypting strings in your 
swf. The requisite decryption would surely carry a cost.
