I would like to thank the developers of NHibernate.

I am working on a project that was using another ORMapper. This mapper is expensive and has some exuberant claims. Claims which proved to be extremely false.

We ran into so many technical issues that it seemed like all the development time was spent resolving issues with the ORM or finding work arounds. My dreams of rapid development ceased to a crawl. Finally I made the decision that we couldn't move down this path anymore.

Luckily the project has a fairly decent architecture so that replacing the ORM was feasible. It was hard to move away from a mapper that cost so much, but it had to be done. I successfully ripped out the old mapper and replaced it with NHibernate in 5 days. The project has been saved and performance of the app has surged.

We are now focusing on solving domain problems and developing the app is fun again. So thank you so much for putting in such a great effort. My team and I really appreciate it.

Thank you, we've put in a lot of effort and it's nice when people respond back with some praise.
