I really like the POL; I've never had any problems with it, performance or
otherwise, and as with C++, you can choose your level of 'engagement' (that
is, you can use many POL features, or just a few), so I can't imagine
slowness becoming a real issue.

Though this doesn't strictly pertain to the POL, I think the real question
is whether or not to use C++ exceptions. These won't slow your application
down, but if you have a large app, the exception tables may push the near
data segment past the 64K barrier. There are ways of dealing with this (see
the 'Expanded Mode' whitepaper at CodeWarrior's site), but you should do
some research before you get started with them.
