XOP introduces another level of processing. Therefore, it introduces extra complexity and processing overheads.
The representation of the XOP packages introduces some overhead. These are negligible when the binary data is large, but could be significant if the binary data is small.

Famous quotes containing the word costs:
“It costs more to maintain ten vices than one virtue.”
—H.L. (Henry Lewis)
“Pride can go without domestics, without fine clothes, can live in a house with two rooms, can eat potato, purslain, beans, lyed corn, can work on the soil, can travel afoot, can talk with poor men, or sit silent well contented with fine saloons. But vanity costs money, labor, horses, men, women, health and peace, and is still nothing at last; a long way leading nowhere.—Only one drawback; proud people are intolerably selfish, and the vain are gentle and giving.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“When over Catholics the ocean rolls,
They must wait several weeks before a mass
Takes off one peck of purgatorial coals,
Because, till people know what’s come to pass,
They won’t lay out their money on the dead—
It costs three francs for every mass that’s said.”
—George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)
