There are a limited number of situations in omaha that come up again and again, and it's rare to find a big bet situation that deviates greatly from those, so providing you have a good knowledge of those odds approximately, and a good "feel" for how additional info might alter those odds positively or negatively I find you're almost never doing any sort of vaguely complex mental arithmetic at a PLO table.
I don't care too much if I make a slight mistake for a small bet either as I play a lot of tables at once. I only really give it any great thought if there's a sizeable bet involved and if I don't have an instinctive feel for the sort of equity involved in the various options I can take.
