What is the effect of packages installed by snap on memory usage?

I never used snaps before.When reading the vague descriptions I assume it's implemented in a way really similar to containers.

This makes me assume that programs in snaps all use their own libraries. But because 'regular' programs use the default libs from the system I assume multiple libs will be loaded which will cost a lot of memory...

Is this indeed the case ?

(Note that I mention "running" instead of installing)
