Hi,
due to the RenderTag overhead I always recommend to use elements whereever 
possible. The elements are the native way to get information for a single 
page where RenderTags are already a workaround.

Remember: Using RenderTags can result in RQL executed on the server.

My suggestion for usage:
1. Elements
2. Rendertags
3. Custom Code
(missed anything)

Best
Hilmar
