John,
It was one of your colleagues during the last WWDC saying something
like "design for performance"! I think it was the Safari talk. I fully
support this attitude, even if you are writing another TicTacToe
In the past I often observed, that code written with optimization in
mind (when performance is a constant requirement from day one) is more
robust, and expresses the intention better. It is also often (believe
it or not) simpler - possibly because in this case folks tend to think
before code...
Just my 0.02
