We are particularly looking at Asynchronous Change Data Capture because it

Maybe overheads of the subscriber databases too?
No - source. Hopefully, things have improved with 10G; 9.2.0.4 was
simply a disaster.
Performance within the source? Thought that the only real additional
overhead there would be the requirement to bump to supplemental rather
than standard logging. Does the log mining process affect performance
within the source database process?

Log Miner is very resource intensive. Don't be surprised if it eats a
substantial percentage of your server's capabilities.

Thanks for the heads up on that. Might look for our prototype at running
the Streams staging instance on separate hardware to isolate resource
contention from the OLTP source systems.

Do Redo Transport Services chew much resources on the source systems or,
if significant, is that mainly in the staging area as well? I'm assuming
that Log Miner runs in the model we're considering (Asynchronous Autolog
Mode) on the staging server post log transportation, rather than on the
source servers.

TIA

Redo transport is not that resource intensive, neither is streams. Log
Miner is doing a large amount of work reading log files, analyzing their
content, and reconstructing the transactions.
