NSHomeDirectory() vs. -stringByExpandingTildeInPath

Subject: NSHomeDirectory() vs. -stringByExpandingTildeInPath

Mostly out of curiosity, which is better (ie, faster, more portable, cheaper) to use for creating a NSString for a file path somewhere in the current user's home directory, [NSHomeDirectory() stringByAppendingPathComponent:@"path/to/file.ext"]; or [@"~/path/to/file.ext" stringByExpandingTildeInPath];? And if they're the same for that case, are there cases in which it's better to use one than the other? Thanks.
