I doubt it, but it should be easy enough to prove. Just write two
routines -- one with short names and one with long and have them run
a set time (perhaps years) and compare their performance.

If you're the programmer reviewing/maintaining someone else's code, I
would say "Yes, it does." Both too cryptic and too long makes code
difficult to read.
