The O'Reilly _Learning Cocoa_ book says that TIFF is the preferred format to use with Cocoa. I would rather use PNG because the file sizes are so much smaller. Is there any performance hit or any other reason to use TIFF instead of PNG for icons in my app?

I haven't run any tests, so take this advice with that in mind... But at icon size the performance differences between all of the image formats should be effectively noise.
