Basic Real-world Bandwidth cost of 1Gbps to 100mbps.

I know it will vary wildly from appliance to appliance - But does anyone know of any basic metrics out there on the media conversion impact on 1Gbps -> 100Mbps. I've been trying to find some resources on this to convince our ISP to give us gigabit up-links instead of multiple LACP'd 100Mbps links to get our 300Mbps advertised bandwidth. I've already got a lot of data on the switch level that shows high packet input/output queue drops which may be enough.
