Any noticeable performance hit when A/C is on?

It hasn't warmed up here enough to turn on the A/C yet, so I haven't tried it, but have any of you noticed a significant drop in VTECH/general acceleration while the A/C is running? It always pained me in my other Hondas, albeit they didn't have 240 HP. Just wondering...

Its not a huge drop but noticeable. Not sure if the computer automatically disengages the A/C compressor on WOT. On my Dakota R/T the computer auto disengages the compressor for 30 seconds during WOT.
