Depends on what you are cooking and how quickly you mix it... I'll cook
seafood fairly hot and fast, and sorry to disagree, but I find the milk
solids are what give it the flavor!!! Clarified butter, to me at least,
has no more flavor than corn oil!!!

I'd use olive oil before Clarified butter (and usually do) as it gives
more flavor IMHO.

Ymmv. :-)
