ASM can dramatically impact the performance. Its hard to nail down numbers because it has a lot to do with what you enable within ASM, what your web pages involve, and what your traffic is like. But on an 8950, I have seen the CPU drop from 100% to 20% during load testing (where we intentionally drove traffic until things broke) by turning off ASM.
