It's not the number of components (i.e. Labels, Buttons, TextFields...)

Then it really isn't a GUI issue at all. It just comes down to something
simiar to
which is the quicker:

for (int i = 0; i < 100; i++);

or

for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++);
for (int j = 0; j < 10; j++);

and the answer really is who cares?

As before design maintainable elegant code and forget performance until you
know it matters.

With your examples, it won't.

On the other hand there is a debate on here...

flatter model such as the TableLayout from JGoodies et al.
