I'd be interested in the definitive answer as well.

Based on what it does (described in reasonable detail at http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E11882_01/server.112/e16638/instance_tune.htm#PFGRF94543) I suspect there will be some, but not significant, impact.

After all, "By default, SQL monitoring automatically starts when a SQL statement runs parallel, or when it has consumed at least 5 seconds of CPU or I/O time in a single execution." and so all you are doing is adding those statements that don't run in parallel, and don't consume 5 seconds I/O or CPU. Depending on the load type of your environment, that might not affect many/any statements.

But it is (yet another) area I have not studied in detail.
