My recollection from my eval of their product several years ago was that the 
overhead cost of full db encryption was on the order of 10%.  It might be 
appropriate if looking for a cross-db-platform solution; otherwise, I'd look 
more to a storage-based (array-level) or implementation-specific (advanced 
security option, for example) solution.
