Significant performance hit auditing system account actions?

Some security requirements include auditing events by users and root. So
the line might include something like:

  -F auid=0 -F auid>=500 -F auid!=4294967295

My question is, if you don't include that phrase will the audit system
still get everything and not incur a serious performance hit. Effectively
it will audit everything for users 1-499, the usual system accounts.
