sometimes i wonder if graphql is just a distraction from the need to actually have graph walking capable sql resultsets with caching

the number of megabytes all those sql queries with related collection retrieval add just for all f those products is insane

what if we could just specify right at the start a graph of interacting and caching queries and then the result-sets would unwind as optimized tree instead of flat values duplicated forever

@ossronny tbh I always considered it a borderline security issue that a user request could make your database do a ton of joins without you having much of a say

@tintvrtkovic @ossronny Always a performance nightmare, constantly a security headache. GraphQL has to be the most misguided hype ever and it was obvious from day 1. 😳
