Yeah there is learning curve for ORM too. Never blindly use ORM without checking the queries it does to your DB. Enable the logs to see what it does, evaluate them, enhance the slow queries, if you don't know how, change those to raw sql.
I would never give up the development speed that using ORM gives me. And from experience there are at most half a dozen queries that I convert to raw sql in a huge project.
