Do you think the process of peer review is a benefit or a hindrance to scientific progress?

"Peer review is a process of subjecting an author's scholarly work, research or ideas to the scrutiny of others who are experts in the same field. It is used primarily by editors to select and to screen submitted manuscripts, and by funding agencies to decide the awarding of grants. Publications and awards that have not undergone peer review are likely to be regarded with suspicion by scholars and professionals in many fields."
