"snap list" on our F820 raised CPU usage from about 5% to over 20% for almost a minute. We have about 20 snapshots on a 500G volume.
"snap list" is _much_ faster in recent ONTAP releases (e.g. 6.2.2). It doesn't seem to do any disc I/O at all nowadays.
We have about 20 snapshots on a 500G volume. Creatingand deleting snapshots also causes higher CPU load for several seconds.
And disk I/O as well: that's still true. Though not as much as pre-6.0, of course.
