I favor Queries even when Glide brings up the hint that performance will suffer.

I like the flexibility of fine-tuning Queries if needed. If I used a relation I would have to delete the Relation, recreate it as a Query and then replacing it everywhere it is used.

Sooo…is the speed difference significant? I have hundreds and thousands of rows…not 10,000s+.
