No. As with most well-designed application for this platform, SSH only consume cpu-cycles during an active connection. At start-up, cpu-cycles are used to load it, but thereafter it remains dormant until awoke by the network driver in response to a connection request. As you can see with multiple memory usage utilities, even the memory consumption is extremely low. Not much larger than a single .png.
For those concerned about security, just change the default password. Easy to do
