Yes, there can be a slight performance impact. Each Error Boundary adds a layer of abstraction to the rendering process. If an error occurs, the fallback component needs to be rendered, which takes time. However, the performance cost is usually minimal, especially for well-optimized applications. The benefit of preventing application crashes and providing a better user experience generally outweighs the minor performance overhead.
