Ok, printf is faster with or without bash:

[rocketmouse at archlinux Desktop]$ cat dash.sh 
#!/bin/dash
for i in `seq 1 1000`
do
  basename "$PWD" >/dev/null
done
exit
[rocketmouse at archlinux Desktop]$ cat bash.sh 
#!/bin/bash
for i in `seq 1 1000`
do
  printf "${PWD##*/}\n" >/dev/null
done
exit
[rocketmouse at archlinux Desktop]$ time ./dash.sh 

real	0m0.468s
user	0m0.010s
sys	0m0.053s
[rocketmouse at archlinux Desktop]$ time ./bash.sh 

real	0m0.042s
user	0m0.033s
sys	0m0.007s

[rocketmouse at archlinux Desktop]$ cat dash.sh 
#!/bin/dash
for i in `seq 1 1000`
do
  printf "${PWD##*/}\n" >/dev/null
done
exit
[rocketmouse at archlinux Desktop]$ cat bash.sh 
#!/bin/bash
for i in `seq 1 1000`
do
  basename "$PWD" >/dev/null
