Is a query wrapped around `constant_score` more performant?

I have a requirement where I want to use ES 1.7 queries, but the _score is irrelevant to me, so I would like to disable ES's scoring mechanism for queries. If I wrap my whole query in a constant_score query, should I see some improvement in response time? Could not find this explanation in the docs.

Is this more performant than just the filtered query at the top level?

{
  "query": {
    "constant_score": {
      "query": {
        "filtered": {
          "filter": {
            "term": {
              "status": "open"
            }
          },
          "query": {
            "match": {
              "topic": "elastic search"
            }
          }
        }
      }
    }
  }
}
