note phaylon <p>Just some comments… <p>As a Class-DBI Con you have <blockquote><i>Single author => single point of failure</i></blockquote> <p>but then, in the DBIx-Class Cons you have <blockquote><i>Multiple contributions => less coherence expected.</i></blockquote> <p>What do you think is better now, more or less contributors? <p>Also, DBIx-Class seems to be both, the <i>"Second worst performance"</i> and the <i>"Second best performance"</i> which both are Pros and Cons in your list. Is it really both a pro and a con when it is in the middle? <blockquote><i>No support for customizable column inflation/deflation. (is this true?)</i></blockquote> <p>No, it's not. There are already some column inflation extensions available on CPAN. <blockquote><i>No distinction for "primary/essential/other/all" column kinds except for primary key and "others". (Maybe a performance issue for large columns.) (is this true?)</i></blockquote> <p>DBIx-Class lets you specify what fields you want to have in the resultset. <p>Also, what do you mean by <i>No support for static class metadata generation.</i>? If you mean DBIC can't create the classes for you, you haven't taken a look at DBIx-Class-Schema-Loader. <p>Also, your DBIx-Class Con list contains <b>both</b> of these: <blockquote><i>Does NOt have seamless support for handy database domains (production, test, dev, staging, ...) and types (main, archive, reporting, ...). <br> …<br> Supports the innovative concepts of database domain(production, test, dev, staging, ...) and database type (main, arcvhive, reporting, ..).</i></blockquote> <!-- Node text goes above.
