I would imagine so, because it has to load another texture (the parallax map) to create the effect. That said, the p-maps are pretty small textures and it doesn't create a lot of extra geometry like tessellation does, so the hit is pretty small.
I thought this would be too colorful but it looks AMAZING in-game. Oh my gosh! Great colors. The detail and clarity of the full 8K version is AWESOME! It's the clearest and crispest and most beautifully parallaxed texture I've seen in any working video game. It looks absolutely stunning in my frankenstein build, and great that it doesn't cover every low wall in the city so there is some variety. With modders like you Riften has gone from one of the most forgotten cities in the mod community to one of the most heavily covered! This looks and works great. GPU demand be damned.
I would love to see this as a simple Farmhouse Wall replacer. There used to be a brick wall mod like that on here, but it has, sadly, been removed. Farmhouse walls are used in all sorts of situations, and brick suits it really well. It's the easiest way to populate the game with such a texture.

I wish it would be for other cities as well ;)
