I have openvpn running on 2 servers. Streaming hulu, other sites when I am abroad. It doesn't use up any resources.

I use openVPN but for slight different reasons than watching hulu (although I sometimes watch Youtube videos that are for US viewing only).

No significant performance impact on small VPS server, except for bandwidth

I used to, it's not a big resource hog.
