First, using appropriate meta tags on your pages will help with search results and SEO. I prefer to add meta tags, description, etc to my pages to improve being found and rankings.

Now, about tagging in general. The increase in load time depends a lot on whether you are measuring actual load time or perceived load time. Perceived load time, the time between request and when the user can "use" the page, is what impacts your click throughs, abandonment and user perception of your site. And yes, every tag you add will have an impact as the page waits for the tag resource to respond.

With that being said, if you have tagged your other forms and keep the tags to a minimum, you should not see any big difference since we are talking about 1 page. If you were tagging all of your forms, yes that would be a big impact.

As a suggestion, perhaps you can review your forms and your tags and make sure that you've assigned only the necessary tag(s) and keep the number as small as possible. That way you have the benefits of tagging while keeping the impact as small as possible.
