=head1 DISCUSSION

This document maintains some thoughts of Record Iterators and Moose.

ODG::Record is designed for efficient streaming, i.e. accessing
one-record-at-a-time. For conventional record iterators, a new row 
object is created for each record, slots are initialized, data are 
filled and types are checked. Not all of this is desirable.

=head1 Object Recycling

If every row based record, populates in the same manner, it is hugely
inefficient to instantiate a new object for each record. This is 
especially true of Moose-based class. ( This is not a knock against
Moose.  ODG::Record uses Moose extensively. )
