Make it work, then make it "clean" (that is, readable and maintainable); then make it fast, and only if measurement indicates that it matters.

  Yes! Clean code (which is more readable and maintainable) should be a stop on the way to higher performance code. Otherwise, you are optimizing too early.

    To be clear, I greatly disagree with Clean Code’s notion of what constitutes readable and maintainable code.
