I really doubt that one test of inserts is really 'final' proof that hibernate is just as fast as jdbc....

LoL. Hibernate is based on JDBC.
jwenting replied ago:
the eternal argument is whether database access through Hibernate is slower than through handcrafted JDBC code.
This centers mostly around the performance of Hibernate generated SQL and the way Hibernate may split database operations that a smart coder might handcraft into a single operation.
In reality any difference is usually small compared to the time savings tools like Hibernate can provide on medium to large projects, and easily compensated for by (if needed) using slightly more powerful hardware for servers.
