I would imagine you take considerably less photos than if you had a flash or 2 in the room because you spend more time posing the models just perfect and more of the shots get tossed out due to blur even though the models were doing their best to "freeze".

Since I rarely use flash, I don't really have a comparative basis to say whether I get more or less usable images. Typically I'll shoot about 250-300 shots in a 3-4 hr. photoshoot and on average count on 10-15 frames to be blurred.
Results will vary, of course. Some models are better at freezing a pose than others.
I just prefer shooting this way because I tend to like the more natural overall look of the image. Slave/synch flashes have a harsher look and flatten an image. Sometimes I'll use a pair of diffusion softboxes depending on the setup...but that's rare.
