in thread The Rules of Optimization Club
Great point, JavaFan, (as always...) Of course, if performance is a higher requirement than functionality, then is the function really broken if it meets performance but is suboptimal in its functional scope (aka. fast but got bugs)?
I think the point he's trying to make (and I could be wrong) is that if you optimize a solution prior to getting it fully scoped, you could encounter elements of scope that destroy any work you did in optimizing performance, essentially you're spinning your wheels. Likewise you can introduce unnecessary architectural complexity if you optimize before finishing any functional requirements.
Of course you should never dismiss performance when designing a system...
