Bingo. We’ve been working with Cocoa/Obj-C for many years, and still we’d find
weird errors that would be caused by some over-released object. We cut a ton of
code with ARC, and in the end we saw reliability go up and actually even some
performance.
ARC is a win. The only place it really got a bit hairy was CF objects. I wish
ARC would work with them a bit more.

They’re a _lot_ easier. It might not look that way when you’re reading about
all the details, or converting existing code, because then you’re focusing on
the rare edge cases. But for the most part when actually coding you can simply
ignore ref-counting. Your code becomes more compact and readable, and you’re
less likely to make mistakes.
