This sounds exactly like my current project. The ORM is pulling all fields for the model objects and related objects instead of the two or three it actually needs and there’s no easy fix because too many unrelated features make use of the same query code, but use different fields. I’ll slowly change it to using multiple single purpose queries probably, but it’s going to be a tedious task. As an experiment, I changed one to only fetch the fields that it needs and the query ran in approx. 15% of the time. That’s a pretty big improvement! Sigh.
