The overhead is minimal. INVARIANTS was originally put in because
DIAGNOSTIC was being too nasty to the system. So nasty, in fact,
that it could crash the system all by itself in certain situations.
You can think of INVARIANTS as a light-weight non-intrusive version
of DIAGNOSTIC.
Frankly, I have INVARIANTS (and INVARIANT_SUPPORT) turned on by default
on all of my kernels.
