I've run into problems with it in a few areas: 1) Bundled connection pooling. You can disable it or change it, but it takes work. Bundling seems against the idea of keeping libraries and dependencies small and composable.
2) Default behaviour of delete can be inefficient. It returns the entire deleted object rather than just a count of rows deleted. If you are deleting big binary columns, this can be a problem. Again, you can disable this. At the time I encountered it I had to read through the code to figure out how. 3) Some queries get translated to incorrect SQL. This is what made us switch away. Korma was in part a response to clojureql. Chris found clojureql to be doing too much magic in it's dsl->sql translation and wanted a more 1:1 mapping to sql. However, korma doesn't go far enough in some cases. When it goes wrong, you might be faced with hours of debugging as I was. (The problem queries involved aggregates and joins.) I realized that I could write the sql in one minute and so just switched to straight jdbc. It is incredibly hard to write a clean sql dsl due to differences in how various database drivers work, and also due to how complex sql itself is. It's worth noting that you can always selectively fall back to jdbc if you encounter any of these issues. Korma uses jdbc itself and works well with it. We instead mix jdbc with light honeysql usage.
