The only price you "pay" is that no user can login _without_ a password. This is because my patch requires you set PermitEmptyPasswords to "no". The reason your logs are filling up with these messages is sshd "asking" pam if the user is allowed to log in without a password. Pam, seeing this as a login attempt, logs the error and delays.
