Dual layer caching refers to in-memory caching of database results. Lazy instantiation refers to only retrieving results as they are actually required.I note that you omitted: Dual layer caching, Lazy instantiation, Database/data source independenceI suspect the first 2 are something specific to an OO-centric design.
The last one was already discussed. I doubt one can nicely put nearly all SQL behind an API.Your doubts arise from ignorance.
And if possible, I doubt only OO can do it well.Weaseling again. Your statement, once more: "You spend all your code translating back and forth between two discordant paradigms."
Where's the bloat?
Still waiting...
