I have been a PHP developer for about 10 years now and until about a month ago I have never used a framework.

The framework I am now using due to an existing codebase is cakePHP 1.2

I can see certain benefits of the frameworks with the basic helpers like default layouts. I can deffinately seen the benefits of MVC keeping the logic sperate etc. But the query building just seems to be bloated. Is this expected?

Am I likely to be able to build better queries than the framework could build? I just feel I could get my apps running better without a framework.

What are your thoughts?
