wow. thanks for writing that up. if it's any consolation, you likely just saved me untold amounts of pain as i am wrangling with what approach to take for saving a small but not trivial amount of structured data in my app. this pretty much rules out core data!

Don't rule out Core Data! It's very nice (especially with the new concurrency APIs); it hasn't yet been brought totally up to speed with iCloud, but it's been improving every year. Remember that OS X is on annual releases now, so there will be more improvements this year and so on.

I wouldn't rule out core data just from this post. Core data may have some quirks, but it's pretty reliable and very useful from my experience. I haven't given iCloud + core data a try, since I wasn't sure if it were reliable yet.

We use Core Data all the time. In over 20 apps or so. We have no problems at all. It's a fantastic persistent storage API with some great features.

That said, I would not use it in conjunction with iCloud. That's where all the trouble is.
