CirrostratusHi Joe,
For cookie insert persistence it depends on whether it's a session cookie or a time expired cookie. For session cookies, LTM will only set the cookie in responses if the client didn't present a valid cookie (ie, LTM only sets a persistence cookie when a load balancing decision is made). For time expired cookie insert persistence, LTM will insert the cookie on every response.
You can test this using a browser plugin like HttpFox for Firefox or Fiddler for IE.
