The list is long. Very long. Certain virus scanners will put the
breaks on your computer if they're doing a virus scan, you may have a
virus that's taking up a lot of your system resources, some file
sharing programs will do it, Windows itself can at some times be
quite the resource hog... basicly, it all depends on what you've got running.

Well, it's no secret JFW can at times be resource intensive. But, somehow, I doubt the performance hit you take running it will be very much different from if you didn't have it running. Particularly on today's computers. I've run several processes I know full well are more resource intensive than JFW, and this computer's nothing special, but it was still fairly fast all things considered.
