And you can do both in DBIC. That's why benchmarking is so hard,
TIMTOWTDI, which one will you benchmark? Same with Catalyst. For my
apps, I use uri_for massively, some people don't, which way are we going
to benchmark? Same with controller base classes vs action classes vs
external modules.

IMHO you can only really benchmark developers together with their
framework of choice.
