Do you have any benchmarks to back this up, or any comments from the core Cake developers (ie PHPNut or Nate) to this effect? I have not heard this before, and it sounds like FUD. I use loadModel heavily in my code and do not notice any particular performance hit (and afaik loadModel is basically the same as $uses). Cake model instances are cached in the ClassRegistry, and I was under the impression these existing instances were used for associations and $uses where possible. Certainly there is some performance hit to loading in Model classes (and it shouldn't be done unnecessarily), but unless you have some further proof I don't believe this is any worse whether they are loaded through associations, through $uses, or through loadModel. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Cake PHP" group.
