and...the rationale for the Hibernate feature is to optimize *lazy*
loading, not eager loading - its a query that you only want if needed.  
Also hibernate does a poor job with join-based eager loading - they make
no adjustment for things like LIMIT/OFFSET, for example (which is
disastrous IMHO).

The performance gains in the "eager" version are only that of fetching
columns.  In Hibernate's case, some JDBC implementations don't pull
columns over the wire unless requested on the result.   Sadly this is not
the case for most Python DBAPIs.
