"Is resonance really where you get best antenna performance?"

the importance of resonance in an antenna system:

1.optimizes current and voltage.
2.makes the antenna much easier to feed.
3.indicates frequenc/y/ies where the load represents a pure resistance.
4.establishes the center of the band in reference to operational bandwidth
5.tracking changes in antenna systems due to modifications, weather, etc..
6.tuning for X=0 provides correction for any and all velocity factor error.
7.provides a reference frequency for determining antenna "Q" factor.
