Hibernate and Performance: Take Back Control
summary
Practical Hibernate performance fixes: enable hibernate.jdbc.batch_size and switch ID generation from IDENTITY to SEQUENCE to allow batching (example: 1000-film insert time falls from ~15s to <2s with batch sizes ~10–50). For very large imports use StatelessSession to reduce memory and time, disable OpenSessionInView, fix N+1 by replacing join fetch with two queries, mark read-only transactions, and use IN-clause padding to stabilize query plan reuse.
