Honestly.. WPA is secure enough for most needs.

WPA2 has already been cracked as well.. wireless security < wired security.

Also, yes, the encryption overhead -also- reduces throughput. I seem to remember a graph somewhere that showed the amounts of overhead for each type of security.
No security, iirc was in the neighborhood of 25-35% overhead for simply the wireless handshaking/pairing etc.
and wpa2 iirc was closer to the 65% overhead..
