1) It's possible to have a leak where the exhaust pieces join together. This could be due to loose connections or improper installation, or getting hit by something in the road (esp relevant in the winter when large chunks of ice are thrown from the undersides of cars.
2) It may seem to "seal up" when warm because the cat has reached operating temp and is absorbing the smelliest part of the exhaust. While metal expands when heated, it's unlikely that it would be enough to fill in any leaking speace.

4) The engine requires a certain amount of backpressure to perform properly. The extent of your loss of performance will be directly related to how much off the optimum pressure you are currently running.
