In cases where you control the hardware and the problem is sufficiently parallelizable.
If you are releasing consumer applications either your program works smoothly on the device a consumer has or not, let alone has the ability to buy either financially or fundamentally (as in you don’t find a phone with desktop level performance anywhere, because they don’t simply exist).

Sometimes it is just not possible, or it is too expensive, to increase hardware performance. Premature optimization, or at least one of its manifestations, is failing to consider the opposite.
