Hi. The cluster strategy will yield better display performace (fewer VML objects). However it will not speed up feature parsing - same number of objects in the response from the server. To me the cluster strategy helps more on the visualization side than on the performance side, but this is just a guess as I've never done any experiment actually showing it.
