swfobject or Adobe Embed Code

What do you recommend using to embed SWF's?

The Adobe Embed code:

http://helpx.adobe.com/flash/kb/object-tag-syntax-flash-professional.html

Or swfobject?

Adobe code is a simple copy and paste. With swfobject it looks like I install the swfobject library file on my site and make sure I am linking to it correctly on the code. I already know the swfobject generated code needed.

Is swfobject for better performance?

thanks
