I am presenting TSM as a solution to a local hospital and I expect they will 
have lots of security questions.  Thanks in advance for
all input....

Has anyone used the include.encrypt option on production system?

Have you seen CPU processing significantly change on the client or server?

Does it require more LAN/WAN bandwidth to backup / restore?

Is it available for all supported platforms?
