Much?  I'd say no.  It changes a little, in most cases, e.g.:

-rw-r--r-- 1 skangas skangas      0 2021-09-25 02:02 .#foo#
-rw-r--r-- 1 skangas skangas     19 2021-09-25 03:33 foo
-rw-r--r-- 1 skangas skangas      0 2021-09-25 02:02 foob
-rw-r--r-- 1 skangas skangas      0 2021-09-25 02:01 foobar
-rw-r--r-- 1 skangas skangas      0 2021-09-25 02:00 .#foo.lock

I guess this starts to matter more when you have a ton of files named
fooXXX.
