I can't point nor give you the real code behind my experience (still
under NDA), but I can give the stats for an application I initially
developed with plain php/html & pnapi (was a postnuke module) and
after recoding it with smarty:
Concept NON SMARTY SMARTY
Lines 310000 97000
Develop Time 6 months 1.5 months
Time to fix a bug 2 days 3 Hours
Change presentation unthinkable couple of days at most
Human team 5 (1 html, 4 programmers) 3 (1 html, 2 programmers)
The proyect was rewritten from scratch respecting the database, and it
had the same architecture except the presentation logic that was
heavily simplified by smarty,
The project was made two years ago, and has suffered heavy changes,
all possible by the simplification made by smarty, the codebase is
still fit to sustain a couple years of maintenance.
After that one, all projects I've make have been made with smarty, and
it has allowed me to make a full ecomerce site in less than 12 days.
I've been using smarty for two maybe three years, and I have yet to
see a situation were smarty makes things more complex, usually they
become much less simple.
