+Performance Problems with PostgreSQL, MySQL and SQLite3
+-------------------------------------------------------
 
-Possible Optimizations
-======================
+Current relational DBM systems seem to be have general problems with
+the SQL queries produced by object relational mappers like the Django
+ORM, if these use multi-table inheritance like Django's ORM does.
+The "inner joins" in these queries can perform very badly.
+This is independent of django_polymorphic and affects all uses of
+multi table Model inheritance.
 
-Django_polymorphic can be optimized to require only one
-SQL query for the queryset evaluation and retrieval of all objects.
+Concrete benchmark results are forthcoming (please see discussion forum).
 
-Probably all that would be needed seems support for an additional
-queryset function in Django's database layer, like::
+Please also see this `post (and comments) from Jacob Kaplan-Moss`_.
 
-    ModelA.objects.join_models(on="field_name", models=[ModelB, ModelC])
-
-or, less general but more simple::
-
-    ModelA.objects.join_tables(on="field_name", tables=['myapp_modelb','myapp_modelc'])
-
-This would add additional left outer joins to the query and then add
-the resulting fields from this join to the result objects.
-E.g. a query for ``ModelA`` objects would need to join the ``ModelB``
-and ``ModelC`` tables on the the field ``id`` and add the fields ``field2``
-and ``field3`` from the joined tables to the resulting objects.
-
-An optimization like this might require an SQL database.
-For non-SQL databases the implementation could fall back to
-the current ORM-only implementation.
-
-SQL Complexity of an Optimized Implementation
----------------------------------------------
-
-With only one SQL query, one SQL join for each possible subclass
-would be needed (``BaseModel.__subclasses__()``, recursively).
-
-With two SQL queries, the number of joins could be reduced to the
-number of actuallly occurring subclasses in the specific result.
-
-A perfect implementation might want to use one query only
-if the number of possible subclasses (and therefore joins) is not
-too large, and two queries otherwise (using the first query to
-determine the actually occurring subclasses, reducing the number
-of joins for the second).
-
-The number of joins needed for polymorphic object retrieval might
-raise concerns regarding the efficiency of these database
-queries. It seems likely however, that the increased number of joins
-is no problem for the supported DBM systems in all realistic use cases.
-Should the number of joins of the more extreme use cases turn out to
-be problematic, it is possible to split any problematic query into, for example,
-two queries with only half the number of joins each.
-
-It seems that further optimization (down to one DB request)
-of django_polymorphic would be restricted to a relatively small area of
-the code ("query.py"), and be pretty much independent from the rest of the module.
-Such an optimization can be done at any later time (like when it's needed).
