It varies a lot based on the environment and who the other party is. It can be anywhere from not-noticeable to severe. I'll email you an intro and link to the podcast.

Their announcement said you have to install it. I wonder if that has anything to do with their servers being overloaded at the moment. It's a sizable download.
