Ajax performance question

The framework has a bit of an overhead but if you start moving functionalities outside the framework the code will be more difficult to maintain.

It seems you are on a optimizing trip the last few days but optimizing isn't everything. You have to look at the whole application to find out where the bottlenecks are. It could be as simple as indexing fields in the database instead of pressing every nanosecond out of the php code.
