So, really, is the cat in the 2010 that bad?

My version of the 10 starts great, runs wonderful, gets around 40 mpg, doesn't decel pop.
So, is that "cat" in the headpipe really costing much in terms of torque? I haven't dyno'd bike so I'm really only guessing, but it seems to run nearly as good as my 08 which was the same setup but it had the TTS tuner which this new one has not...yet.
Just curious...

Maybe 6 months ago I read where somebody dyno'd their stock bike then cut the cat out and dyno'd it again. There was a slight difference but within the margin of error, about 1 HP.
I used my TTS, tuned it up and cooled it down which was all good. The other advantage is that I can put the original map back in when, and if, it comes time for a smog check.

Is the restrictive air flow causing heat or is the material heating up and causing the heat?
Will a "saws-all" take out the material?
Is there a better way of removing the material other than cutting the exhaust in half? other than sending it off?
If you cut the exhaust in half, will the material fall out or is cutting and grinding required?
