Thanks, that thread was very enlightening. I understand how annotating relationships as EAGER can be really bad sometimes, however IMHO it is impossible to foresee every scenario a developer will run into and impossible to be sure that he will never, ever, have a reson to use it, thus EAGER relationships, even if nested in other EAGER relationships should work as advertised. In this case some overhead would be necessary to get the framework to show the expected behavior but it's a small price to pay. I don't mean to criticize the great work being done in EJB/Hibernate and I DO think things should be implemented in the most efficient way, but the time lost in trying to figure out what is going on and then explaining it to others could have been used in more productive things. If a developer has certain performance needs than he should do his homework about best practices and enable/disable whatever options are necessary. The default gain in performance and the obligation to use what is supposed to be the best practice should not come at the expense of odd framework behavior, even in rare cases. Anyway that's just my opinion. In the end I did work around the problem by changing the said relationships to LAZY and making some other adjustments in my code. Sorry if I sound bitter, I know it's still in beta and all... it's just some frustration for the time I invested in trying to make things work.
