Performance of Software DEP for all programs?

I am suddenly interested in enabling Software DEP for all my applications,
especially in light of the news that it can stop exploits like the new WMF
vulnerability.

The question I have not seen addressed anywhere concerns the performance of
applications once DEP is enabled. Theoretically, will all applications
under DEP suffer a performance hit? If so, how much? If there is a
performance hit, is it significant enough to affect CPU intensive
applications such as video capture/playback, games, etc?

Grateful for any info.
