Gap of about 20ms between compiled Linq2SQL and this looks enticing. I guess this can be used at hot spots with optimized SQL queries using existing LINQ2SQL entities.

Definitely not for everyone. The whole reason it exists perhaps is to kill SQL translation time and avoid dealing with data readers.

Kudos for making it OSS.

Also, Entity Framework takes about 800ms unoptimized. That is almost a second to execute a query. I can't begin to imagine what the performance of its solution would be in the hands of a new developer.

Edit: I misread about the EF performance. Sorry about that.

No, EF is 800ms for 500 queries, not for 1 query. I've not seen EF overhead be a performance hotspot on projects I've been involved with.

Sorry. My mistake. :)
