I don't think the DBAs concern is about the overhead of DBIC, but the
efficiency of the database calls. i.e he wants to ensure that the SQL is
optimised and indexed correctly. He does not believe he can do that when
DBIC is generating the SQL because he 'has no visibility' of the code.
IMO he is doing premature optimisation in that the database is very
small in Oracle terms and he can always be given sight of the actual SQL
queries generated.
I suppose next he will say we can't use a high level language because he
can't be sure that optimising compilers generate absolutely the most
efficient machine code!

Hi Ian,
Have you profiled your code to demonstrate that the calls to DBIC are an
insignificant component of the overall request cycle time, and as such
choosing a more "efficient" technology is a waste of time, effort and money?
I have used PL/SQL. Dark, terrible days, those.
