Well, in my experience, HIE provided great resolution, and less grain than in
most
infrared work I've seen by others.  I always use a #29 filter, move the 
focused
point to the R index mark, keep the lens capped until the moment of 
exposure, 
don't bracket, and develop by inspection so the film doesn't get overcooked. 
FWIW, my summer exposure in daylight is 1/250 at f/11.  Late in the day I 
give
more exposure, as I do when the season changes.  There seems to be less IR
radiation in the autumn, and of course less in the winter.
