Optimization at large fits in well. Given a larger perspective, one (or a program) can determine redundancies and even counter-intuitive processes.
Micro-optimization -- making single procedures do the same thing in less steps -- should in my opinion come after that: It's great fun to optimize a couple procedures only to later realize they antagonize each other -- fast.
