Re: Converting Existing Project into Cake PHP

Hi,

I can't really help you with your questions on the basis of
experience, but I believe that cake should handle that pretty well and
alot of optimizations can also be done on database side. But I already
read about the possibility of lazy loading models in cake, maybe this
is something you could use (just ask google).

After a look in the \libs\model\model.php, it seems like the modified
and created fields are hardcoded. As workaround you could try to copy
this file into your app/models directory, it should be used instead
and you can change the field names there without having to change the
core.

There also exists a book about refactoring legacy applications, that
could help you.
