Hi, I'd say it's slower than a normal user can cope, especially when zooming. I have an OL (current SVN version) web site with a WMS base layer (tiled) and a WMS alpha=true layer (not tiled). If I use IE6 and I try to zoom (small click on the little + button), my navigator will freeze for some random time between 3 and 60 seconds. By freezing, I mean not refreshing the navigator window, not using CPU, just doing nothing. If I remove the alpha=true, then the website works like a champ appart from the transparency being broken for my non-base layer. Sorry, no public web site to show. But I attached a PNG returned for my second layer (in attachement). My current solution is not to use alpha=true at all. If you have to support IE6, better switch to GIF and forget about alpha channels and the added quality. CU.
