I would assume that it conserves gas, since it only uses the minute amount needed to overcome inertia.
"Test #3 Use Cruise Control
Result: Surprisingly effective way to save gas
Cold Hard Facts: Up to 14-percent savings, average savings of 7 percent
Recommendation: If you've got it, use it.
One thing that's important to note: if you are in a mountainous area you should turn off cruise. It will try to keep you up to the speed you've set and will use a lot of extra gas downshifting to lower gears to accomplish this. "

If you are on the interstate it would conserve gas since it is mostly straight and level, but on off roads it would not conserve as much gasoline since it has to adjust for hills and curves.
