The extra overhead is tiny. Using broadcast means that everyone on the subnet will see an extra packet from each Sun Ray server host about once every 20 seconds. The main downside is that if the hosts have other interfaces that aren't on a common subnet (they're separated by at least one router) then they won't be able to verify connectivity between those interfaces and they won't be able to maintain contact if their common subnet (your core switch in this case) goes down. It's usually not worth worrying about, if you lose a core switch then you'll have far bigger problems to deal with than the possibility of some misconnected Sun Ray sessions.
