In some cases a 5% performance hit is huge - offering up "our programmers make mistakes" as a justification is a non-starter.
But enabling checks on security critical systems makes alot of sense (alternately, on non-performance critical systems). Even selectively enabling assertions could become standard practice.
In Debian, it could be a different "port", or maybe alternate packages to control at a finer granularity. I haven't had a need for OS-level VMs, but installing such variants on test machines is interesting...
