I recently stumbled on a site (which I forgot) which reported that about 75% of their visitors support ECDSA. So in short, if we can divide the CPU usage by 20 for 75% of the visitors, that's roughly a 3.5x performance improvement
to be expected, that would be nice!

For what it's worth, the next version of Mozilla's modern guidelines will most likely prefer ECDSA certificates and only have ECDHE ciphers in the ciphersuite.

More testing is needed, but it seems that client support is mature enough.
