DBIx::Class's performance is, it's true, crappy by default.  But at
least I can make it fast by, for example, telling it what to prefetch.
I'd rather it be that way round than that it prefetch everything by
default, thus making very large very complex queries even when it
doesn't need to, and eating all the memory in the world with the
results.
