Well, I've a slight preference for macros over transclusion only because they're slightly more modular and simplify the wikitext. Replacing the implementation without impacting TiddlyWiki content is easier with macros, e.g. I've just modified this plugin to add a "selected" class for easier styling, and bundled in some simple qunit tests: http://whatfettle.com/2008/07/ThemeButtonPlugin > I've often wondered if there was a performance > hit when using transclusion rather than a macro. Performance at that level hasn't been a concern for me! Given it's usually easier to measure performance than theorise about - if it's something you think is an issue then suggest putting the exact same code in a transclusion and a macro then timing each of them repeated 10,000 times and report back.
