Would you classify GORM that way?

Groovy’s ORM? I recall it being Hibernate under the hood and I had to fight with it to avoid common problems like hidden IO and N+1 query blowups (iterating over a set of results and then touching the wrong property means you are making another network call for each), learning its particular DSL for schema definition and associations, and not having a way to represent any but the simplest SQL constructs. The usual ORM stuff.

To the extent that you can write a syntax-checked SQL statement and it deserializes the results into some collection of row objects, it’s fine. But that’s not the “ORM” part.

I have not used that GORM, but ORMs have those problems generally.
