Here's one rule I've learned -- the higher up in the layers you can make 
an optimization, the more you're likely to save.

Fixing a problem in the application source code is likely to give you a 
lot more bang for your buck than trying to apply an optimization at a 
lower layer that lets you try to deal with the effluent coming out of 
the app.

In other words, find and fix the real problem, and don't just try to put 
band-aids on the symptoms.
