- Well we use persistence 2.6 here in Amsterdam for a large banking
- project. I reckon it takes approx 2 weeks to get up to speed (and then
- you'll never see any database commands again) and then you'll find
- approx 1-2 idiosyncrancies per week depending on how much you use it.
- It's a lot faster than writing your own db i/face class, but the path (
- as I imagine with all mappers) does have its landmines.
-
- If your priorities are to generate a nice C++ interface and use it
- quickly, I'd recommend it. If you want to squeeze 100% of out C++/db
- performance, I'd recommend not. The decision lies where your priorities
- are, I guess.
