Since these devices interpose themselves between a host device and its ultimate input/output device I'd guess there must be some sort of propagation delay. Is it noticeable enough to affect gaming?
 
The simple ones are just a pass through. It's the fancy ones with OSD and stuff like that that tend to add latency.
