My experience is similar - I've been running 1.98b w/Full OE on a production box since August of 2002. This is a pretty normal box - serves http, ftp, mysql and smtp for about 20 "customers", most of which have small websites, and one streaming mp3 service.

I usually have around 100 %pass routes, and 2-5 OE enabled clients at any given time. I've been meaning to wrap "ipsec eroute" for processing by mrtg to get some nice stats - I should get to doing that next week. System load is negligable. Pluto is using 1068k accoring to top.

I also see the major overhead being logging. Perhaps a "log only OE DNS failures" mode would minimize this.
