Disadvantages of LINQ over Stored procedures

Disadvantages of LINQ over stored procedures:

• LINQ needs to process the complete query, which might have a performance impact in case of complex queries against stored procedures which only need serialize sproc-name and argument data over the network.
• LINQ is generic, whereas stored procedures etc can take full advantage of the complete database features.
• If there has been a change, the assembly needs to be recompiled and redeployed whereas stored procedures are much simpler to update.
• It’s much easier to restrict access to tables in database using stored procedures and ACL’s than through LINQ.
