Windows 7 clean install v/s upgrade

I just want to know if I should do an upgrade from vista to 7 or do a clean install from vista to windows 7. Is there any advantage of doing clean installation?

Upgrade to windows7 is easy

It is easy to upgrade because an upgrade will keep most of your existing applications and settings and there is little you need to do after the installation.

I would personally prefer clean install over upgrade install because the little leftovers in the registry can decrease system performance noticeably.
