Just to make it clear: ARC can make more assumptions than manual 
Objective-C calls to retain/release. So ARC being "surprisingly 
fast" relative to manual RC might be due to getting rid of 
Objective-C inefficiencies caused by explicit calls to 
retain/release rather than ARC being an excellent solution. YMMV.
