> Related entities are often loaded via a separate select operation when an
> unloaded field is accessed. The select operation for a relationship field
> structurally (i.e. which tables it joins to or what columns it selects) is
> invariant at instance level. Only thing that changes across entity instances
> is the foreign/primary key identifier values used in joining. The major
> computation cost is paid to analyze to build the select structure by
> analyzing the mapping metadata of class/field involved. As noted, this
> computation is invariant for each instance access except the primary/foreign
> key values involved.
> However, the core infrastructure for this frequent operation (because it is
> carried out whenever a relationship field is loaded for every instance) is
> not designed for reuse. The select gets constructed every time, the
> class/field mapping metadata gets analyzed every time, before the select is
> executed on the database.
> What is required to avoid this repeated and unnecessary cost is to reuse a
> select instance computed for every relationship field only once but binding
> different parameters on every execution.
> The task is non-trivial because of the select abstraction (a highly complex
> and critical data structure) is not designed with such parameter rebinding in
> mind.
> This issue attempts to remedy that limitation.
