So is there any guidance on coming up with a value for capacity?

It feels a little like premature optimization, but I do have to
provide a value in the code....
Thanks for any feedback!

This came up a while back and the consensus was: don't bother at
all. Just use [NSMutableArray array];
And the reason many people don't realize they can do this is that they
overlook the superclass methods when considering a subclass. A lot of
people don't even know that they can send +array to NSMutableArray!
