[FW1] intrusion detection - benifits?



Greetings:

I have this question that I would like the community to give me their .02
worth. 

In an arena running Checkpoint (whatever flavor) is it really worth the
time, expense, and possible network performance compromises to put a
separate intrusion detection appliance online in front of the firewall?

I understand that there are tons of "well, you could.." but what I am really
after is "your" opinion. Would you, as the FW admin/engineer, do it.

Obivously I am looking for some backup here as I am having a intrusion
detection package rammed down my throat, and frankly, I don't want it. But
my only defense at this point is that "is something more to manage".

Thanks to all in advance!!!

Tom
