I'd argue that on ARMs you're generally not worried about execution speed (as most run pretty fast nowadays), nor space (RAMs and flashes generally have lots of space). Now, do you have a really slow ARM, or are you running in a really constrained space (like a tiny metal-mask ROM)? Then yes, avoid it.
