Same on that front, it took me a while to figure out to use control edges properly (without subDing the model too much)... still working on modeling more efficiently and conserving polys. Here's a comparative illustration of how smoothing subdivision works with and without control edges. Also see

It's just one of the modeling considerations to keep in mind when making things for Poser's smoothing routine and hard edges in Poser :)
