I hope it works in the next release then... It looks like this ORM is so
broken that ... I can't say how it was chosen for your project.

Anyway, you are trying to solve problems from your ORM inside your database
that has no problems. This makes things hard. And they get even harder when
you refuse to use advanced features of the database that would help solving
the problems...

I use ORMs in Python and I don't have this problem. I work with views,
functions, big tables, etc. and performance gets better and better every time
I optimize *any* of the two sides: application or database. It is always an
enhancement, as if I was coding things directly by hand.
