Reasons I see that makes get() a better option- 1) There will always be one record returned as it's a join on a primary key 2) For reasons unknown to me, the overridden model delete method is not fired for a filter, instead the 581 queries are executed. The recommendation to avoid web requests for long-chain deletes, most of the time, makes no sense. There are frequently valid cases of long- chain deletes being basic to web requests. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
