Yes, there is.
If you have dozens of browser windows and tabs up, you don't want each and every one of them to run jQuery unless there's actually a good reason for it.
Your website's not the only one out there.

Why not?
jQuery only 'runs' when needed. If you have a button with a jQuery function, it's going to sit idly there until you click that button. If you have some operations at page load, they're going to be executed [I]and that's all[/I].
Unless you write something that requires constant interaction (like a timer), it won't run anything else, so the only performance hit would be having all the content of that page loaded into memory (and that happens with or without jquery).

I have a feeling that this may be an accidental double negative?

There's no double negative in that sentence.
"There is no (good performance related reason to not use jQuery)" or "The amount of good performance-related reasons to not use jQuery is 0"
