You're saying declaring a variable as a List is more efficient even if you know it's going to be instantiated as ArrayList?  I've always tried to avoid that because it's one more line in the import section, and I never use * imports because that just sounds confusing at best messy at worst when you get into the same class names in multiple packages.
