Can an HDMI switcher cause input lag?

Hey all, as a primarily PC gamer unplugging my HDMI cable from my PC to my PS3 always seemed like a hassle, to hook it up to my monitor. If I want to play USF4 on Steam, it's just a click away. However if I want to play 3S: OE on my PS3, due to the lack of space it's annoying to unplug the cable from the PC and put it into the PS3, plus I can't pay attention to Steam messages and such.
So I just had this bright idea and on impulse bought this HDMI switcher. amazon.com/gp/product/B0049S6ZUS/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Then I had the thought... what if this causes extra input lag, for both my PC and my PS3? Any thoughts on if this HDMI switcher would cause that, and anyway to test it?
