server performance hit using asp to return an image

1. Has any one got an idea of the server overhead when using response
binary.write to return an image (as opposed to referncing the image file
name directly

ie minimal ... or heavy?

2. and are there system tools to monitor system usage by file type eg ASP vs
GIF?

Its heavy. If you already have a physical file it would be far better to
find a way to have IIS serve the file via its static file handler.

IIS Logs would help you there.
