If you're doing an instance with a tank where you have to spam holy light to keep him up he shouldn't be in that instance. I use Holy Shock and Flash of Light for every heroic I've done including Halls of Lightning which I believe to be the most difficult I've encountered as far as heroics. Flash of Light is still the best HPM.
Agreed. Holy Light still takes longer (even with Lights Grace) and uses up far more mana, even with Divine Plea. Holy Light is something I rarely have the luxury of using and I even have the glyph that makes it a multi heal. Remember that Divine Plea cuts down the effectiveness of your heal along with the mana reduction so you are pretty much killing the extra healing power that Holy Light gives.
I put JOL or JOW up and use Divine Favor when it's up/Holy Shock for an instant FOL and when there's an AOE attack I throw the Beacon of Light on the tank and am good to go. Whenever Divine Illumination is up I hit it, which is a huge mana saver.
I leveled up from the beginning to Level 79 as Holy. It's never been a problem. The Holy Tree has some great stuff. I can PULL (which surprises more than one person), heal myself and others as I run with Holy Shock and my spells are cast faster all as a result of the Holy tree. For those who leveled up as Ret and plan to go back to Holy at 80 I wish you luck. I'm glad I've been healing all along and I'll bet the people in my party are glad too.

Ive been healing heroics just fine as holy. As people have said its a different game for us now. Shock is much more useful than before, and with crits making instant FoL its become a regular part of my rotation. I have to admit Im still getting used to judging during the fights (usually only do so for bosses/big single pull mobs) but its the haste buff is great for FoL spams. Most people Ive seen complain seem to be offspecs or people coming back from leveling ret, so I tend not to listen too intently.

The reason that I think that people have stopped playing holy is because you can actually heal as ret now. Between Art of War and the increased crit chance you can heal for a lot more that a holy pally.

Quite, that makes no sense what so ever.
