Does anyone have any first hand experience using the netbackup encryption option?

Since encryption is a mathmatical CPU intensive process and netbackup performance the encryption on the client side, that raises concerns on how much of a load it places on the client server being backed up. It also raises questions on how much impact it has on backup/restore times.

Anyone have any first hand experience with the option that can comment on their experiences?
 
I have implemented this option on plenty of Windows and Netware servers with very little impact. The CPU increase was practically unnoticable.
