If VRAM is full RAM is used which is a huge performance hit.

Buffering alot of onion skins costs VRAM.

Since the onion skins are buffered when the frame is rendered, moving the camera or any object invalidates them.

Which is fine for tracking arcs but not to see how the shape moves through the scene. Maya's internal onion skins (ghosting) cannot display skinned meshes, so you have to parent locators to it.
