If you are concerned about restrictions, you can always clean it every 10,000 miles or clean it everytime you dump out the trapped oil.
Reagardless, the benefits out-weigh all drawbacks and if anyone is concerned you, can see the 1000s of them on ebay and on racing and performance enthusiest sites along with the links in the top starting post in this thread.

I understand your purpose exactly and I am not misinterpreting that at all. I am just making sure that everyone sees the possible problems with this system. I don't care if everyone in the world uses it. Popularity has very little to do with functionality, particularly when there is a drawback that is not easily measured, as there is in this case. I am not concerned about restrictions (since I will not install this) but everyone who does install it better be concerned about restrictions. I am only concerned about their engines.
Your caution about washing the filter periodically is exactly the type of caution that needed to be submitted up front, and my point in bringing this to everyone's attention since it was obviously overlooked. I think it is absolutely necessary to either check it by flow, or clean it. How often is going to be each person's responsibility to determine for their engine and driving habits, oil viscosity, etc. If their engine gunks up the PCV valve, it will certainly gunk up that filter over time.
