Hi!
There is nothing wrong with autoload. However it adds overhead so if you want super duper high performance, you use explicit includes/requires with absolute paths instead.
In most cases, it is not practical - code with autoload in 99.9% of cases would be more robust, more maintainable and more readable - and in some cases, more performing too - than code using explicit full-path includes. So if we talking about regular people using PHP and caring for performance, autoload is certainly something not to discount.
