They seem to experience huge difference in speed comparing Obj-C / C
to Swift.
The same guys write also:
For example, we don’t use – *surprise!* – Automatic Reference
Counting at Splasm <http://splasm.com> because, frankly, it’s around
40% slower in some cases, so we’ll leave ARC off and take that 40%
back (and we enjoy manual memory management, thank you very much).
Other teams wouldn’t give up ARC even if paint dried faster. Did I
say ‘if’? Different teams. Different values.
To each is own then, the best we can do is provide choice. I do code
Objective-C 1.0 with manual memory management (wlthough I wouldn't say I
"enjoy" it).
Others want it differently....
the best thing I can hope is that the existence of Swift doesn't need
changes in core. The ideal scenario is where Obj-c 1/2, Swift and other
languages can coexist... Java faded away seemigly and instead of Swift
I'd prefer SmallTalk...
