Ether answered in the previous post. √2 - 1 =~ 40%.

If you haven't built a holonomic drivetrain before, don't design one in the middle of build season. Just use a tank drive. If you're really set on it, then i would suggest mecanums, which can be added to a standard chassis fairly easily, or, if you really want the omnis, put them in the corners diagonally.
