By the time you get in your 50s the regen will start largely offsetting the exp penalty if you are soloing.

So while you will never completely make up for the penalty, you will cut around half of it.

You went from "largely offsetting" to "around half"
[You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] But really that's all I was trying to say: both purely by the numbers, and if you consider the actual details of play (see Vexenu's post above)
regen does not make up for the XP penalty (or at least not fully).
Since you're saying as much, I think we're both in total agreement. If you pick a regen race, it
will take you a (meaningfully) longer time to get to 60: as an Iksar, the regen
will not let you keep up with a Dark Elf Necromancer or Barbarian Shaman.
As for whether the difference is
exactly "largely offsetting" (which would be maybe 80%?) or "around half" (50%) ... or whatever other number? I imagine that largely depends on what level you are, where you hunt, etc. so I don't think there's one right number.
I just don't want anyone thinking that number is 100% or higher.
