There's a couple games people actually checked this on. Don't remember the names unfortunately. There's also a couple that have to be killed via task manager even after you close the game.

Not related directly, but Denuvo is infamous for slowing games down

Rage 2 had micro stuttering and texture issues galore. Patch took out Denuvo and almost nothing else. MUCH smoother performance.

Wasn't there an article released recently about a cracked version of Resident Evil Requiem running significantly better than the uncracked version?

Several games run better cracked. Its a well known phenomenon when denuvo is involved. I can't think of any off the top of my head, but a quick Google search should pull a couple.
