When the coinbase transaction is full (beyond the size that some mining hardware can handle without a performance penalty... mainly poorly coded or low memory embedded miners) a few ...

Can you share the exact size, please. I am working on a low memory embedded miner and don't want to have it classified as poorly coded/developed Wink

. It's easier and better to plan for more memory, than extending it latter

The generation transaction can possibly be as large as 1 MB, which would requires hashing the full 1 MB per 4 Gh.
Actually meeting this requirement turns out to be pretty difficult with modern hashing hardware, even with a dedicated high end PC, so I guess just "do your best" - it is possible (but not implemented yet) to use a midstate to optimise this if the extranonce is at the end of the generation transaction.
A good test would be to run BFGMiner with --benchmark-intense mode.
