Re: performnace of iBATIS

[Sven Boden]

It's comparing apples and oranges ;-) ... iBATIS in the end also boils 
down to JDBC calls, so you can assume it's a bit slower than JDBC (the 
price for more flexibility and ease of use). But with iBATIS you end up 
with java objects while with JDBC you end up with primitives/string that 
you you still have to put into your object model.

With iBATIS you also do get stuff like lazy loading, caching, ... 
already built in, which you have to develop for JDBC.

P.S. look in the mail archives on "performance", there have been some 
rants on performance in the past.

All,

I'm wondering if anybody has some stats on iBATIS' performance agains direct 
JDBC calls.

Thx,
