Fair enough.

I've seen this claim several times on this mailing list over the past
few years but does anyone have actual data about it? How much of a
performance hit is it

I gaved it a try, all sets installed, xdm starts X.
after first boot
pkg_add firefox libreoffice gimp

All looks working great.
