What are the pros and cons of a longer or shorter working limb in a glass bow?

shorter = less mass so it is faster, handier in cover, easier too shoot from a knee....it also has to bend more so it will tend to stack at longer draw lengths and make a bit more noise, it creates more of an angle on the fingers causing pinch .. the trick is to find a happy medium
