Does the 7” touchscreen draw significant resources?

I'm trying to use a seven inch touchscreen monitor with my pi4, but the program I'm running is lagging. I was wondering if it draws enough resources to make the pi slower or have slight delay, could anyone help me?

It might be the actual protocol to address the screen that's slow

wdym exactly

the pi telling the screen what to do might be the slow part

ah

fireextravasate

possibly

but the program just freezes for a second and the audio it makes stops

I'm wondering if the program is just too resource intensive by itself or if the monitor could be taking too much away
