Sass doesn't make you bloat your css, but it does make it easier if you rely heavily on mixins. That said, if you've got a website of any complexity then you're using gzip compression for your static assets, and the compressed file sizes are pretty much identical. In terms of rendering performance, I've not seen any comparisons but anecdotally, I've not noticed any slowdown.

As mentioned previously, I'm a front-end web developer, I spend majority of my time coding graphically-heavy designs in CSS and maintaining them, as well as doing JavaScript. In my experience, Sass has been a nightmare. So far, the only people that I've heard praise Sass are back-end programmers, rather than full-on front-end developers.
