At least on the iPhone I can say that using NIBs can add a short delay or slow some UI operations down. Normally we prefer to use IB everywhere we can. On the iPhone we balance it more. Places where pure code is not difficult, we'll go that route because its noticeably faster. While its gotten better in iPhone OS 3.0+, I can say that there have been a few places where using a NIB creates a non-smooth experience whereas using pure code is smooth as butter. And this is borne out in tech talks and WWDC recommendations.
iPhone dev has to keep in mind the fact its a CPU/memory limited device.
