On paper for a Necro I strongly disagree with this: as you get higher, mobs take much longer to kill, so while yes you'll regen more at higher levels, that regen will result in a minimal reduction of your downtime (and your overall leveling time) ... and I strongly suspect that it won't even come close to making up for the XP penalty.

Not quite following your logic on mobs taking longer to kill. At around 55-56, you will be regenerating about 10 more HP as an iksar. Necromancers can generally convert hp to mana in close to 1 to 1 ratio. So we have lich 25+ meditate +20. You can see just by looking at the raw numbers 25% just on the raw numbers here 10/45 = 22%. Of course it's not the whole picture because necromancers can launder hit points via mana use. But calculating that is very complicate or would require a ton of qualifications regarding combat strategy and spell usage. I did the math on it before and found Iksar will kill about 10% faster when not charming, and about 15% faster when charming solo but only at 60. So while you will never completely make up for the penalty, you will cut around half of it.
