Simply make some tests? The experiment is the only measure for the truth.
Personally I am using SQLite for my project AsmBB (web forum software in assembly language). The project widely uses FK in order to provide DB consistency. It was tested during several "slashdot effect" kind of events and demonstrated very high performance. So, in my experience using foreign keys does not degrade the performance noticeably. Regards.
