[TYPO3-english] COA inside another COA - is it a wise thing?

IMHO the latter would be the way to go, since it will reduce the workload
significantly, because due to the XML structures TV splits up the whole
stuff internally when using 20 different object paths - but then again, you
might consider dropping TV completely, because TypoScript is definitely not
the major performance killer when using TV, although TS might be an overall
performance killer compared to other CMS systems than TYPO3.

On the other hand it doesn't really matter how long it takes to render a
page, as long as it can be delivered from cache afterwards. So if you don't
use too many dynamic content elements on your site, it's not a big issue if
you are using TV and/or TS or another templating system.
