Some n=1 testing in an article a while ago suggested you'd lose ~15mins every 100km. Pretty significant over the course of TCR.

Interesting the article says that it is less a factor on a hilly route. There are many advantages of panniers also: lower to the ground for better handling, easy to detach, easier to pick up the bike by the frame as they don't obscure it.
