On a single-user workstation I'd leave it on, because the real issue
related to SELinux don't occur on single-user workstations, but in
networks, where SELinux tends to interfere with network services.

Well, sometime earlier this week, an SELinux update caused my old i586
to run out of memory during a yum update - but that's definitely not a
typical situation.

I've also observed similar effects to occur during relabeling when with
mock installed (infinite recursions into /var/lib/mock).
