On: SQLAlchemy vs Other ORMs

[kenfar_boulder]

It depends on the project. Quite often there simply isn't that much repetition.

On the flipside, how do you feel about slower performance? About diagnosing problems through multiple abstraction layers? Or about having different abstraction layers for different languages?

Given that we're talking about Python, it should be pretty obvious how we all feel about those things.

No not really.

I don't really know programmers that don't occasionally have to make things go faster.

And most program or work in environments with multiple languages.

And anyone using an ORM ends up having to know both the ORM and SQL. And ends up having to diagnose problems across both.

So, nope.
