J: pretty sure it has no/minimal impact since it is performing the equivalent of a snapshot operation of just dropping a pointer to blocks of data. It also has to mark blocks of disk as 'clean' now that they're free. Minimal impact. Also consider that asis requires nearstore option which will additional 256k of ram for additional snapmirror stream that it allows. Again, vry minimal impact.
As to snapmirror footprint...it will send 700m over, but if dest. Isn't SIS'd, it will return to 1gb
I could be wrong in both points above so open to be corrected.

I have read some of the info on how A-SIS works but I have a couple of questions: 1) Assuming an average compression rate (say /home with random docs in it) how much of a performance hit does it impose 2) Does it change how much data is sent over the wire when you use SnapMirror/SnapVault? I.e. if I get 30% compression on a 1 gig snapshot do I send 1 gig or 700 mb to update my target?
Oh, and for the folks who helped earlier, we are moving our Oracle and ESX systems to NetApp, the pSeries will be fibre connected, at least at first but the ESX stuff is all going on NFS.
