Hi,

I would like to know, if anybody on this list has already 
accomplished a real project with OJB. My company has (almost) 
decided to use OJB in one of our current projects (a webbased 
catalogue and online-shop with about 20000 products where each 
product consists of 5-20 properties).

Now there are some aspects about OJB which I consider to be
rather difficult or which I can't really judge yet. So I would
like to hear if somebody has made some _real_ experiences 
(other then just "checking out OJB") with the following questions:

- Is OJB stable enough to handle real projects? 
(There have been various bug reports on the list, e.g. 
concerning joins which I consider essential)

- How much time does the lack of profound documentation cost?
(If you get stuck, sometimes the manual really doesn't go very
far. That could cost time and money).

- How often do you need a "workaround" due to lacking features?
(E.g. lacking capability of mapping one class on multiple tables or 
not fully implemented OQL).

- Has the performance proven acceptable in a real environment even 
though it is slower than native jdbc?


Thanks for any feedback

Michael
