I think I need to clarify:
I am not being unfair to Larry's point when I say JDBC is faster. You can't
build ontop of JDBC
and then be faster than what you built upon. Reflection is slower than normal
Java access - and if
I can find the stats I will show them.
With that said, IBATIS can be "faster" by its built-in caching so that you
don't have to hit the
database on every DAO method. That's true. I use caching myself -- and with
IBATIS!
My point was a narrow point -- on DB access with no thrills, JDBC will always
be the fastest since
its the most featureless - it is the base standard for ORM tools themselves.
I think Larry's point and my point are the same, with differing emphasis. I
hope I've been fair :)
