Yes.  Older versions of the server had the referential integrity plug-in 
enabled by default.  We found that this was a performance hit in most 
cases where it was not needed.  Since you do need it, you need to enable 
it.  Just make sure that the attributes that it requires to find the 
references are indexed.
