The weight of the cage is measured in milligrams - the speeding up or slowing down would be insignificant unless your grease was so thick it caused drag.

Sorry,, but you are wrong,, They are using oil lubrication in the LN bearing and very thin at that. It will be like a knife being sharpened with a oil film against a ceramic sharpener. The cage weight will matter even in the milligrams when you jump on the accelerator or slamming on the brakes. Anyways, I will look up the link on the bearing site I read it on, and post the link.
