I'll second that. Containable makes for a much simpler task of getting
just what you want and not having to worry too much about whether a
recursive level that's necessary for one model will pull in 10 others,
as well. Also, run with debug = 2 to check what queries are being run,
though set that to 0 when you want to test for speed.

And, I should mention that I resolved an ugly slow-down in one app by
realising that the problem was with Firebug, not Cake. Make sure
you're profiling the right thing.
