Hi guys, I am not sure if my assumption is correct Graphql server sends back whatever clients requests. In order to do so they would need to query the database for the exact keys to fetch. For example if i directly get user details without graphql i would do a select* on table(or find in mongo). That would return me the whole user object. In my mind that is faster than getting out specific keys.(only id, name and age) Assuming thats correct it would mean that performing graphql queries would be slower in general than normal rest queries where more often than not you get all of data. Again this is just a thought. I have not researched the fact. I just think underlying database implementations would be more faster for getting all results from table.
