On my Macbook Air, I've not seen any degradation of performance with File Vault running. At least on this machine, I now need to press command-F5 to get speech at the log-in screen, and it only comes through the speaker, not headphones. But I don't really need speech to log in, and I'm happy to pay that small price for the significantly better security of my data.
