Roughly, the lesson is: Don't use message forwarding for "actual work".


Depending on your definition of "actual work" of course ;-)

I use message forwarding to route target/action from UI such as menus down through a hierarchy of objects within DrawKit. For such purposes it's great, since I can implement IBActions at whatever level makes most sense and the context manages itself automatically. I'd call that "actual work". It may well be slow but no-one's ever going to notice since they already have to wait way longer for eye-candy such as menu flashing to run.
