I'm not sure how but it doesn't seem to use that much processing power. My 5 year old apple watch seems to render the glass UI fairly well and I assume this thing has the bare minimum processing power.

It's a GPU shader(s), so you'd have to measure its resource usage indirectly (device heating up; shorter battery life).
