I skimmed this thread and didn't notice: Did anyone talk about wheelsets purely for climbing?

I'm sure there is quite a difference between climbing 10,000 feet in a day on 2000 gram wheelset versus a sub-1000 Zipp101 wheelset. I'm just not sure how much of a difference - how much more energy it would take to haul the heavier wheelset up all that elevation.
