Whether you use an object or inherit from it, there's a finite cost. The object you use or inherit from must be constructed or destructed every time your object is constructed or destructed. Usually, that means a function call. Make sure that lightweight objects intended to be created or destroyed quickly do not use deeply nested inheritance or many embedded objects with constructors.
