Its limitation of Django ORM, You can cache result, don't use Generic FK, Q is quite flexible but you can call SQL statement and wrap then into sqlobject. Alternatively, have a look on SQLAlchemey and PostgreSQL uses MVCC for transaction resolution and its much better than MySQL Cheers, Deepak _______________________________________________ BangPypers mailing list BangPypers@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/bangpypers
