.htaccess definately has a adverse effects on the site speed.
Using too much of RewriteCond will just take up a lot of speed.
I try to code a maximum of 3-5 lines in .htaccess and extracting the variables in URL by any of server variables, and having the desired effect.

Many ISPs don`t give you access to modify httpd.conf, hence you need to code your .htaccess intelligently.
