There are three aphorisms concerning optimization that everyone should know. They are perhaps beginning to suffer from overexposure, but in case you aren't yet familiar with them, here they are:

More computing sins are committed in the name of efficiency (without necessarily achieving it) than for any other single reason—including blind stupidity.

—William A. Wulf ¹

We should forget about small efficiencies, say about 97% of the time: premature optimization is the root of all evil.

—Donald E. Knuth ²

We follow two rules in the matter of optimization:

• Rule 1. Don't do it.
• Rule 2 (for experts only). Don't do it yet — that is, not until you have a perfectly clear and unoptimized solution.

—M. A. Jackson ³
