Steve, The issue here is that the JPA vs DBUtils comparison is not really valid, and the example is nothing like a benchmark. TomEE can't be put on the hotplate for Hibernate/JPA, which is a huge huge topic with tons and tons of documentation. TomEE is 'just' the 'enabler' here. If you are weighing up using DBUtils over JPA (Hibernate, EclipseLink, OpenJPA, etc.) for any kind of enterprise application then I can assure you that you'd need to dig much deeper than this to make a decision, although I would explicitly recommend using JPA.
I don't want us to sound autoritative to you as we're only trying to help you (in our free time), but the 'under the hood' information that you are missing on JPA and EE to enable a proper discussion would require some reading time on your part. Basically JPA can be scaled over a huge scope on many nodes with interoperability to many technologies out of the box, and DBUtils is a very very simple layer over JDBC and nothing more. What you are asking for is to make your JPA example match the performance of your DBUtils example. The random data may be the same size, but that was not the only suggestion I made, and is simply a golden rule for starting a data benchmark - Use the same data. Please try the other suggestions which will have a direct impact on performance, but is still just a scratch on the options available. Andy.
