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?
