Speed vs Ease of use

I have a tad of a problem, well not a problem more of a fork at the roads and I'd like all yours opinion.

The issue at hand is whether to use __autoload to semi handle my framework or use my own construct function which looks like this

PHP Code:


			
public function __construct($aClassReject = array()){



            $inc = get_included_files();



            $dir = str_replace('\\','/',dirname(__FILE__));



            for($i = 0;$i <= count($inc);++$i){



                if(strstr($inc[$i],'.class.php') and !strstr($inc[$i],'core.class.php')){



                    $className = str_replace(array($dir.'/','.class.php'),'',str_replace('\\','/',$inc[$i]));



                    if(!in_array($className,$aClassReject)){    



                        $this->classArray[$className] = (is_array($aClassReject[$className])) ?

                                        new $className($aClassReject[$className]) :

                                        new $className;    



                    }



                }



                unset($className);



            }



            



            



            //now that all classes are activated...check for their dependancies if any



            foreach($this->classArray as $key  => $val){



                $this->__fetchDep($key);



            }



        }

The issue is with __autoload I'd need to activate the classes first where as with the above function I just include the files.

I hope I'm making sense, I'm just kinda wondering what choice would be the best to go with.
