You will need to provide more specific information to get an answer to that question. Namely, you will need to provide: 1) How long "several seconds" is 2) What is your view (or is it admin view)? 3) What would satisfy "good" performance 4) What do you see when you don't use the web server & do it from the shell?
You are correct that multiple relationships will cause some amount of extra work during initial creation - however this should be roughly the same work as updating. It shouldn't be a great concern unless there are lots of relationships being created. Look at the page source to see how relationships might affect page load speed - you will at least get an idea of how many objects are being hit.
