If you need this level of optimization (i.e. the network between database and application is likely to be very poor) don't use an ORM. Have you profiled your applciation and checked this is a real problem, or are you just worrying about this as an early optimisation?
Just worrying and wondering if there's a dedicated solution to get only 1 field from database instead of a whole object
Thank you for pointing out the ORM concept
Probably it's indeed not worth worrying about.
