I would say, that web app model is so inefficient in itself, that you can hardly do anything to make things significantly worse or better performance wise. Also OOP is extensively used in other environments, and unless you are coding critical device drivers, it is rarely to "expensive" in terms of processing time. So my advice would be use OOP, and take benefit of better organization of your code.
