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.
