Just to add to the conversation... You have to ask yourself, "when do I need this model?"
If you are going to need it in every web request, then stick it in the $uses property. If you only going to use it in one method, then register it on the fly. That way, your not bogging down every other request. Remember every web request is unique, and you are firing up all those models every time. Which ones are you actually using and when? -- Our newest site for the community: CakePHP Video Tutorials http://tv.cakephp.org Check out the new CakePHP Questions site http://ask.cakephp.org and help others with their CakePHP related questions.
