I should have added the caveat that there will always be a handful of cases where you do need absolute top performance. However, I do think that for the vast majority of apps we'll end up at a point where performance isn't the deciding factor. It doesn't mean that we shouldn't keep improving performance, just that being the fastest doesn't matter so much if all the options are very fast.
i suppose i presumed a difference of 2x either way (worse/better) to justify picking one over the other -- given that frameworkless is ultimately the most optimize-able.
do you need something to be "at least X(ms) fast" or "faster than what company Y is doing" or "as fast as possible, no exceptions"
