In my small test (Map application running) it was not so bad at all.. the GPS was using just a small amount of battery (the indicator was still full at the end of the day, everything off).
My N810 lasts about 10 hours with GPS constantly on.

Just to be clear, gps-clockd does not activate GPS when it's running. It piggybacks on other applications that use GPS.

gps-clockd should have a negligible effect on battery life, as it is event driven.
