Probably should use it anyway. It keeps your password files organized, it
is better than mounting /etc/passwd over NFS. You can often do things
that way and get away with it (I have done it myself) but you really
should not. :)

Yes. Much. Although it's still not a terribly efficient protocol in the
first place. If you're planning to swap over NFS (not a happy idea) you
probably ought to use at least 100Mb ethernet. Don't bother making it
switched, unless you're swapping to several different servers...
