Thanks for response, but I have no desire to dig into TYPO3 anymore. For me, the most modern and advanced framework is Laravel. It is non-comparably faster to FLOW and implements all modern programming technics, BUT, it does not require 500 (!!!) limit of nested calls. I'm currently running about 5 sites on it and never had any problems with it. It runs out of the box on any hosting with at least PHP 5.4.
