But of course, some people use the native Cockos Reaper plugins more than others. For those that use them alot, the setting would be worth it. I only use about 4 of the native Cockos plugins thus far and about 150 different freeware VST's. I can't really afford the performance hit since I'm on Linux.

At the moment there is a person having difficulties with Waves, Soundtoys and UAD in heavy projects with >100 tracks. Others in the same thread report completely different results. It's meant to help with all plugins but Cockos is aware of problems with UAD (there's a remark about that in the prefs).
All I personally can say is that anticipative mode helps my lowly computer a lot with all kinds of plugins (but neither of the 3 brands in question), not only native Cockos ones. From my experience I'd recommend to only ever switch it off on tracks where you encounter problems (right click on a tcp -> Track performance options -> "Prevent anticipative FX").
