Why is the overhead so great?

  Because it has to load a virtual frame buffer (Xvfb), the chrome browser, a Selenium server, and then your testing framework. All that adds up to crap performance. There's a lot of pieces that could be simplified with a smaller set of requirements. But like @diminoten said: it's worth it if you have no other choice.
