In queries that make use of the data, yes.

Essentially no.

DB size is so low on the radar of performance issues, that I think it is
basically worth ignoring. If your database is so big that it fills the drive
it is on, that could slow the whole system down as the page file has to get
chunked up. But for all reasonable scenereos, you are much better off
focusing on reducing the number of calls that are required to get work done,
and improving the efficiency of your functions and procedures.
