I know we should try and use as few quarries as possible right to help with server efficiency. But just how critical is this?

It depends on the situation. Sometimes multiple queries are better than just one.

but how will they effect server performance? Will they bog it down?

It really depends on the situation. If you're worried about perfomance you should just test the speed of your queries (either on the command prompt or with a little script that you insert in the complete code). Everyone does this, even the most experienced users. Why? Because every sitation is different.
