in the new codes, if you turn on "ip load-sharing per-packet" cef is automatically enabled globally.
CEF as far as performance issues, uses a bit of ram equal to the number of routes in your FIB (routing table). Cef builds its own little adjacency table to do those really fast lookups. For modern routers, with more RAM than my PC this is rarely an issue. Of course if your running an old MSFC1 or NFFC (cat5k) you may fret.
