I've used torque and hibernate.
Torque gets you up and running very quickly, and has less files to maintain (mapping files) . In the case of hibernate to get around the mapping file maintenance a lot of folk including me use xdoclet.
Hibernate gives you more control than Torque but has all that messing around to get it running at first to get everything right.
I don't remember how torque deals with many-to-many relationships. I believe that the transaction management is probably better with hibernate. But I haven't use torque in a while so i could be wrong.
A big difference is that torque has a table based api, where hibernate has a stronger bias towards Objects.
I'll have to give torque another go to have a better idea, but your question "Why not torque?" is as good a reason as any to stick with it.

Hi, I ‘ve been using Torque with Struts for quite a while and performs very well. But I’ve seen that you guys usually uses Hibernate with Struts. Can you tell me what are the dis/ad vantages.
