Sorry, but this isn't high-poly, but blatant fubar.
Have a look at the picture below. Both cylinders will look exactly the same, though one comes with insane poly-count and the other one is done right. ;)

You should always (!) keep the polys down to as much as you really need. I guess about 1/3rd of them could be left out with no visual effect, as they appear to be redundant.
I hope the picture helps to understand what I'm trying to explain.
