I was hoping for more, but there may be many places where that code can be optimized – it was probably written for clarity more than speed.
The above statement is true.
While we do incremental performance increases, if you guys read my blog from April 14th, 2011 http://blog.anscamobile.com/2011/04/whoa-is-right-our-corona-sdk-gets-major-update/
One of the items that we are focusing on the next release is The next area of focus is graphic enhancements. Do I need to say more? We will focus from increasing our graphic pipeline performance, to adding shaders, to hard-core graphic features such built in curve-fitting all the way to raster and imaging enhancements. Photoshop anyone? UGHGH I get carried away sometimes… Oh behave !
Hope that answers your questions.
And seriously, guys, the funny statements, try answering forums, and support emails for a living, and you will see how much fun they are. I am notorious for it. They don’t mean anything. It is the staff trying to vent on their long days. And in a startup, the days are 24/7/365 non-stop. But guess what? What other company you know off that the co-founders roll up their sleeve and take time to answer your forum post and try to monitor it on a daily basis to get a temperature reading on whats going on with their product. 
It’s all good. (See am venting 
Means no harm.
