Thanks. Which leads me to another question: When you execute a finder, does Geronimo load all beans related to the target(s) or no related beans (until appropriate CMR getters are invoked)? It seems like there are going to be performance issues either way, just different ones. I'm hoping for "no related beans", because otherwise you have the potential for big graph loads which I think is the more painful problem of the two. I also understand that Gianny is working on some kind of CMP/CMR load groups, which will solve this -- I guess it can go on the road map for now. :) Thanks, Aaron
