@drewmccormack Why it's not a great post: http://blog.metaobject.com/2013/10/should-you-use-coredata.html …

@mpweiher @drewmccormack For evidence, you can look at what Apple does vs says. Are Mail, Aperture, Contacts sync, etc. all “corner cases”?

@mjtsai Not really. Some teams in Apple are surprisingly ignorant of Apple's own tech. What do they use instead? XML? Rest my case.

@drewmccormack Article says that you should use Core Data because Apple uses it for apps, and Apple knows best. But where are said apps?

@mjtsai @drewmccormack a generalised framework can never be as fast as specialised because the general case cannot make certain assumptions.
Drew McCormack ‏@drewmccormack 15 Oct 2013

@milend @mjtsai Only in theory. It assumes you have developers capable of it, and good caching is not easy. You pay a price too: rigidity.
Milen Dzhumerov ‏@milend 15 Oct 2013

@drewmccormack @mjtsai agreed about time / resources required. It's very much a question of deciding whether the pros outweigh the cons.

@milend @mjtsai I would even argue that SQLite is specialized for high perf disk access. CD is specialized to make high perf apps (disk+RAM)
