Actualy it depends on the FPGA architecture and the syntehsizer.

FPGA Register have a direct reset input, most time configurable
to synchron and asychron.

Now if a synchron reset is used and the synthesiser does not use
the reset line of the register but instead "emulates" it by
using logic (how it would be done on an ASIC), then it's worse
than using async reset that uses the registers input.
